2008 All PAWS on Deck Beach Party
PAWS Chicago let the dogs out on July 17th, proving that when it comes to partying on the beach, four legs are double the fun! Over 450 guests and 150 pups dropped anchor at Castaways at the North Avenue Boathouse for PAWS Chicago’s Sixth Annual Beach Party.
Guests enjoyed cool summer cocktails, a beachy buffet, dancing, and a silent auction while pets donned their tropical best (some even wearing swimsuits), lapped up bowls of special doggie ice cream and devoured gourmet dog treats! The event, emceed by NBC5’s Anna Davlantes, raised over $157,000 for homeless pets, making it PAWS Chicago’s most successful Beach Party to date. Presenting sponsors included The Chicago Spire and the John R. Walter Family.
