DASH (Dallas Association of Style Houses) is an organization that has been created to provide a unique three-day Dallas fashion experience that coincides with Super Bowl XLV while benefitting three local charities close to the DASH founder's heart.
DASH's long-term goal is to go national and benefit each city the Super Bowl visits with this couture event! DASH will put Dallas on the map as a fashion destination and the birthplace of this remarkable roving philanthropic soiree.
Join the Dog & Kitty City volunteers at the May 15thGayBINGO event, where DKC gets to keep 50% of the huge raffle. It's the most OUTrageous game in town! This month's theme is "GayBINGO Cabaret". Buy tickets here.
Gaybingo is every third Saturday (except April and December) in The Rose Room at S4, 3911 Cedar Springs, Dallas 75219 -- in the heart of Oak Lawn. Doors open at 5PM. Games start at 6PM. Pre-sold tickets get first entry when the doors open.
Gaybingo is a wild evening of bingo games, music, comedy, and big prizes! The evening is hosted, managed and announced by a pair of very beautiful professional performers, "Jenna Skyy" and former Miss Gay America "Patti LePlaeSafe." The evening has a different theme each time that dictates the costumes, decoration, featured mixed drinks and bingo patterns of the month.
The more raffle tickets sold the better, because DKC gets to keep HALF the raffle money made that night.
Gaybingo is a program produced by the Resource Center of Dallas. The mission of Resource Center Dallas is to serve the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender (GLBT) and North Texas communities by providing: support to GLBT individuals and organizations; health, HIV and social services; and education and advocacy.
Dog & Kitty City will participate in Pooches on the Parkway, an adoption event that starts on Saturday, March 27th. The event is going to take place on every 4th Saturday of each month, between 11 am and 3 pm. It will be in Village on the Parkway, in the parking area on the west side of TGI Friday's.
We will have an adoption booth on the opening day, so make sure you stop by! If it goes well, we'll do it again. You can meet some of our dogs, and dogs from 14 other adoption agencies. This is shaping up to be a great event for dog lovers, and a nice way to spend the spring weather with like-minded people.
Date:
Saturday, March 27, 2010 (and possibly every 4th Saturday of each month afterward)
Join us for the 4th annual DOG BOWL at FAIR PARK on Sunday, April 11 when the Cotton Bowl will be turned into a giant–size Dog Park. Humane Society of Dallas County will have a booth at this event. Dogs and their owners will be "unleashed" on the Cotton Bowl field, where there will be fun contests, a style show, live entertainment, dog crafts, photos on the jumbotron, giant dog bowls, misting ponds, dog & owner concessions along with many exhibitor booths!
A busy Saturday at Petsmart, with the DKC dogs on their day out and the DKC cats running all over the Luvapet center. It was shaping as a usual weekend for DKC, but the day brought its surprise twist when Mirna Urquidez presented Claudia Bankston with a check. Mirna had selected DKC as her charity of choice at her workplace, and we were one of the winners! See the picture with Nancy Thomas, Mirna Urquidez, Claudia Bankston, Jeff Lee, Manager of Petsmart, and Juan Villamizar, one of the assistant managers, accepting the check.
But that's not the only way Mirna helped us. She adopted a dog from DKC, which Randy and Nancy had fostered, and she also fostered kitties she rescued that were adopted at Luvapet. DKC is very lucky to have Mirna Urquidez as a loyal fan and friend. We're also happy to work with these dedicated people at Petsmart, whose smiling faces you can see in the photos (after the jump).
