Bloomington IN – On Friday, May 17, 2024, Monroe County Humane Association (MCHA) invites you to join us for an unforgettable evening at the 16th annual Tails on the Town event. Held at the historic Woolery Mill, located at 2250 W. Sunstone Dr, Bloomington, IN 47403, the festivities kick off at 6:30 p.m.

This year, Tails on the Town is back with a vibrant carnival theme, promising an evening filled with delectable food, custom cocktails and mocktails, exciting games, and live music by the sensational Jayne Bond & the Pink Martinis. Get ready to dance the night away, bid on fantastic auction items, and win fabulous raffle prizes—all while supporting MCHA's vital mission and programs dedicated to helping pets in Monroe County.

Tickets for this not-to-be-missed event are priced at $75 per person and include two drink tickets, ten carnival game tickets, food, and live entertainment. Additional drinks will be available for purchase at the cash bar, along with extra carnival tickets for those eager to enjoy more games and fun. Secure your spot at Tails on the Town by purchasing tickets online at monroehumane.org/tott. Please note that this year's event is strictly for attendees aged 21 and older, and casual attire is encouraged.

One of the most significant highlights of this year's Tails on the Town is the "Fund an Item" initiative, which focuses on providing essential veterinary care for pets in need. With just a $60 contribution per animal, MCHA can offer a comprehensive range of health and nutrition services, including parasite prevention, life-saving vaccinations, diagnostic tests, spay/neuter surgeries, medications, and food assistance. What's more, every dollar donated to the "Fund an Item" initiative will be generously matched up to $20,000 by an anonymous donor, effectively doubling the impact of your contribution.

"MCHA's nonprofit veterinary clinic stands as a lifeline for countless pets in Monroe County, many of whom have no other options for vital care and desperately need our help," emphasizes Andrew Krebbs, Executive Director at MCHA. "By providing essential veterinary services and support, we not only save lives but also offer crucial assistance to pets and their families facing extremely challenging circumstances. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors whose generous support makes our work possible, and to the dedicated members of the event committee for their tireless efforts in organizing this year's Tails on the Town."

The success of Tails on the Town wouldn't be possible without the generous support of our sponsors. MCHA extends its heartfelt gratitude to this year's sponsors, including Bailey Weiler, The Dog House, German American Bank, Scout’s Honor, Commercial Services, Slotegraaf Niehoff, Smithville, IU Credit Union, City of Bloomington–Office of the Mayor, College Mall Veterinary Hospital, Forthphaze Technology, Andrew Krebbs, Erika Oliphant, Bloom Magazine, Monster Digital Marketing, and Oliver Winery.
