Gimme Shelter Animal Rescue will host their 3rd annual summer benefit at the Southampton home of Ellen and Chuck Scarborough on Saturday, July 26, 2014.

Highlights of the night will include a “Smooch the Pooch” kissing booth with Rescue therapy dog Leo, music by DJ Ray Jarrell, a Bark Box station, a live auction lead by Chuck Scarborough and a silent auction. Auction items include a guided tour of NBC studios, a private jet flight from Westchester County to East Hampton, a Ralph Lauren throw, Tonight Show tickets, New York Giants ticks, various gift certificates among others.
Guests will also enjoy mini ice-cream cones by Joe & Liza, a Starbucks station serving iced green tea and coffee, cocktails from Tito’s Vodka and Spiked Seltzer and hors d’oeuvres from Manhattan-based caterer Between The Bread.
