  PAWS fundraiser at the Holly 12-14-10

  Events, PAWS Comments Off

  Tuesday, December 14, the Noteworthy Show Band of the South will play Christmas music at the Holly.  This 40′s – 50′s swing band will provide wonderful music with some vocals thrown in. Plan on a most entertaining evening!

  Dr. Mills, DVM, Thompson Creek Animal Hospital, Dawsonville, plays in the band.  He contacted PAWS President Dan Bowers with a very interesting proposition.  A silent benefactor will make a contribution to PAWS based on the number of tickets sold for the show.  With approximately 280 seats available, this will be a great opportunity.

  PAWS funds and efforts are necessary for many shelter animals to have a future. Please, encourage your friends and family to purchase tickets:

  
  Ticket price is $15.00.

  Show time is 8 pm December 14.
  

  The Holly basement box office is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm.

  Tickets can also be purchased on line at www.hollytheater.com, or call 706-864-3759
