Humane Society posts music festival, photo contest

The second annual Poochella mini music festival will take place on Saturday, June 17, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Humane Society of Harrisburg Area (HSHA), 7790 Grayson Road, Harrisburg.

Local musicians will perform inside and outside. Among the food vendors will be Good Life Ice Cream, offering homemade ice cream in cups and waffle cones as well as puppy scoops. The festival will also include temporary tattoos for humans and temporary spray tattoos for dogs, a 1979 Volkswagon Bus photo booth provided by PA Party Wheels and event T-shirts, with the opportunity to tie-dye the shirts.

Additionally, the HSHA will announce the winners of the Peace, Love, & Paws Crowler Contest, which was held in conjunction with YAH Brew. Samples of the new, limited-release Rescue Brew by YAH Brew will be available at the event, and crowlers may be purchased.

Prior to Poochella, community members may enter the Peace, Love, & Paws Crowler Contest by uploading a photo of their dog or cat at http://www.gogophotocontest.com/humanesocietyhbg and encouraging family members and friends to vote for the pet at this website through Wednesday, May 31. There is an entry fee per photo and a fee to place a vote. Proceeds will benefit homeless animals in central Pennsylvania. One winning dog and one winning cat will have their image on the label of the Rescue Brew.
