Capital Area Rescue Effort (C.A.R.E.) is coordinating its first inaugural Canines Uncorked festival on August 11 at Ashton Creek Vineyard in Chester. The goal in 2019 is to find homes for more than 20 dogs and raise $5,000 to continue the lifesaving work for homeless and neglected dogs.
Canines Uncorked is a rain-or-shine event with wine, live music presented by The Melbays and Hartwood Grocery, and plenty of adorable dogs looking for homes. It raises funds to help save homeless dogs from dying in animal shelters.
“Canines Uncorked will provide C.A.R.E. with an awesome opportunity to enjoy a day with the area's animal lovers, great wine and wonderful local music talent,“ said Vicki Powell, Director of C.A.R.E. “We are excited that our adoptable dogs will be showcased and have an opportunity to meet so many new people, and that CARE will have an opportunity to raise funds to continue our life-saving and life-changing work.”
The event starts at 1:00 PM and is located at 14501 Jefferson Davis Highway Chester, VA 23831. Wine and food is available from Ashton Creek Vineyards, a supporting sponsor. There will be merchandise for sale and raffle tickets may be purchased for many great items. Be sure to follow all event updates on C.A.R.E.’s Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/CARERVA.
