Sweet! BARCS fundraiser @ Field House
I've always had a soft spot for BARCS, the animal rescue and care center in South Baltimore. That's where Amie got Fiona (pictured).
From 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. today, BARCS is taking over the Field House in Canton for a wickedly awesome fundraiser. They're asking for a $7 donation, and there's an open bar from 7 p.m.-8 p.m.
There's more than just an open bar, of course. Free haircuts from Floyd's 99, raffles and all kinds of goodies.
So get there, and when you're there, raise a glass for Fiona and all of the countless other animals BARCS has helped save.

Hi Sam,
Thanks for the shout! Even with the Sahara like conditions we still had a great turnout!
Thanks to Fieldhouse for the open bar, Floyds 99 in Brewers Hill for the cut-a-thon, The Intercontinental and 2910 on The Avenue for raffle donations!
We raised close to $600 for BARCS and will be doing it again!

UGH! Thanks for the 'advanced' notice, I would have attended this and gave more than $7. I only read the blog Mon-Fri. #FAIL on someboy's part.

@double B -- I only take credit; I don't take blame. Guess that means it's your fault for not reading on the weekends. Sorry buddy.
