Stray From The Heart would like you to help us celebrate the incredible joy of helping homeless and neglected dogs. We chose the Boat Basin Cafe at The West 79th Street Marina so our furry friends can join in the celebration, so feel free to bring your friends, both human and canine.

Our event will start on Sunday July 12th, 2009 4:00 PM and will end at Sunset, 8:27 PM. We ask for a modest admission fee of $20.00 -- 100% of it will help finance our dog rescue and adoption program.

The Boat Basin is in the Riverside Park Marina, on the upper west side of Manhattan. There are two entrances from Riverside Drive and West 79th Street, one is North West 79th St. and the other South West 79th St. As you walk west on 79th St, there are foot paths leading to the Boat Basin Cafe. The other entrances to the Boat Basin Cafe are north and south coming from inside Riverside Park along the Hudson River. There are stairs on both sides leading up to the restaurant. Once there, just walk back towards the raised circular stage. You can buy your tickets there, drinks and munchies will be available as well.

In Addition...
Wine tasting table compliments of Les Companions Wines who will donate a percentage of the proceeds to help help animal rescue organizations like Stray From The Heart, The Toby Project, Gotham Cats and NY Saves. You can have the wine delivered to your door, so Sip and Save!

Raffle Prizes: An opportunity to win Broadway theater tickets and a chance to hear Bernadette Peters in concert as well as gift certificates to some of our local restaurants and sports memorabilia... $5 a piece or 5 tickets for $20. Be a winner!

Photo Booth: Have a professional portrait taken of you and your pooch. Fun accessories available for dress-up. Its only $5...100% of the profits will go to to our rescue dogs. If you've been meaning to get that perfect shot of your beloved companion, here's your chance while helping a worthy cause!

Reunion! A SFTH Alumni table will be set up on the grass outside the Boat Basin Cafe. We have placed over 1,800 dogs in the last 9 years...let's hope they don't all show up at once!

Please let everyone know about this event. The more people who join in this celebration, the more dogs we can save!
