The Boca Grande Club held our 8th Annual Tennis Ball Fête for Pets, benefiting the Suncoast Human Society. We had a packed house on January 27, 2016 with over 190 attendees who enjoyed a cocktail hour, silent auction, delicious dinner and a live auction to round out the evening. The auction was conducted by Kennedy Brothers Auctioneers of St. Petersburg, FL who helped us raise more than $60,000 for animals in need.
The Boca Grande Club and the Tennis Ball Fête for Pets Committee wish to thank all those who attended the event, with a special thank you to the sponsors and all the businesses, stores, services, restaurants and local golf courses that donated items to the live and silent auction to make the event a great success. In addition to the Boca Grande Club, the Tennis Ball Fête for Pets is also sponsored by Italiano Insurance Services, Inc. and Grande Aire Services, Inc.
