March Silent Auction and Cocktail Party to Benefit Volusia/Flagler Animal Rescue Group
ORMOND BEACH – The 3rd annual Spring Cocktail Party and Silent Auction, a benefit for the Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter, will be from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, March 19 at the Ormond Lakes Clubhouse on Ormond Lakes Boulevard.
The event will feature cocktails, savory appetizers and tempting desserts on the lake view deck. But, the highlight will be a silent auction of artwork, unique gifts and other items donated by local businesses and individuals, according to newly-elected president Julie Beard.
“We’re very excited to host this event again this year,” Beard said. “We have lots of interesting items that will be on display for those planning to bid on a great item while they help support animal welfare.”
Beard said the event is a large part of the group’s annual fundraising efforts to purchase land to build the Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter and Spay/Neuter Hospital.
The 501C(3) non-profit agency organized in 2007 to help find homes for animals in Volusia and Flagler counties and places dogs and cats in foster homes until they are adopted or until their “state-of-the-art-with-heart” shelter is built.
The agency’s short-term plan is to obtain land in Volusia County and construct a facility to help decrease local government’s cost to house or euthanize unwanted animals.
Other goals are to establish an aggressive spay/neuter program, help animals stay at home to prevent the need for housing, and provide superior care and quality of life for animals.
Tickets for the event are $25 per person and all proceeds will be designated for the group’s Property Acquisition Fund. Reservations can be made by calling Judy Thompson at 386-252-1050.

Golf Management Group Hosts Course-Wide Fundraiser for Woman Seriously Injured in Auto Accident
CELEBRATION, Fla. – Celebration Golf Management – which manages award-winning golf courses in Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee – will host a Charity Putt-Off on Feb. 26 and 27 with the proceeds going to help with medical expenses for an Arizona teacher who suffered critical injuries in an automobile accident last month (January) in Phoenix.
The event, which will be held at some of CGM’s seven courses, will offer the golfer who gets closest to the pin each day at each course his or her choice of several prizes, according to Celebration Golf Management President Gene Garrote.
“We’re hoping to have a great turnout for this event with $5 for every attempt being donated to a much-needed cause,” Garrote said. “The grand prize for the golfer who makes the putt will receive a full GCM golf makeover, including free golf, new equipment and instruction.”
Golfers coming closest to the pin can choose from tickets to Disney World, SeaWorld, rounds of golf or hotel stays, he said.
The event, which has been dubbed “Rebecca’s Road to Recovery,” will support Rebecca Holzworth – a longtime friend of John Bixler, Celebration Golf Club’s event manager. It will be held at Celebration Golf Club; Legends Golf Club and King’s Ridge Golf Club, Clermont and Stoneybrook West Golf Club, Winter Garden.
Holzworth, a math teacher at Maricopa High School in Maricopa, AZ, sustained multiple broken bones and severe brain trauma in the Jan. 21 accident that has left her in intensive care in a Scottsdale hospital, unable to respond to verbal commands, according to family members.
The cum laude graduate of Marietta College in Marietta, Ohio, was a four-year starter and two-year captain on the women’s volleyball team, and received an All-Ohio student athlete award for excellence in the classroom and on the court.
Bixler said the swelling in Holzworth’s brain is intense and has been the main concern for both the doctors and her family.
“Becca is the kind of person that always has a smile on her face. You can’t help but be in a good mood when you’re around her. Her recovery is going to be a long one and will require the support and prayers of many,” he said.
For more information about the golf benefit, contact Bixler at 407-566-1047 or jbixler@celebrationgolf.com. For details about Holzworth, please visit www.caringbridge.org/visit/rebeccaholzworth.

Poker Run Sponsored By Volusia County Law Firm Raises Nearly $5,000 For Local Mom Diagnosed With Cancer
PONCE INLET – More than 100 motorcycle enthusiasts participated in a recent poker run sponsored by the law firm of Rue & Ziffra as a fundraiser for a mother of two who was diagnosed with brain cancer.
The event – which kicked off Aug. 14 at the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse and included a classic car show and a barbecue dinner – raised $4,500 for the family of Lorraine Metakes of Port Orange.
Robin Fenwick, one of four organizers of the fundraiser, said 137 hands of poker were sold to motorcycle drivers, their passengers and others who participated in cars.
“We never expected to be able to give the family this much help with their expenses,” she said.
“When we started out, we thought we’d be lucky to make $500.”
Fenwick said more than $1,000 was from raffle tickets for donated items. The rest came from the sale of poker hands, food, T-shirts and from other donations.
“We know that we couldn’t have done it without the help of Rue & Ziffra,” she added. “After they got the word out in the newspapers and on the radio, my phone was ringing off the hook about the ride.”

Ormond Beach Outback Fundraiser Raises More Than $1,300 for Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter
ORMOND BEACH – More than 200 animal lovers attended a recent luncheon at the Ormond Beach Outback Restaurant and raised some $1,300 that will be used to build a “state-of-the-art-with-a-heart” facility for the Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter Inc.
“We couldn’t believe that the restaurant was packed at both sittings,” said Amy Wade-Carotenuto, the animal group’s founder and executive director.
In addition to Rescued Hearts’ members and volunteers, Wade-Carotenuto said many others from throughout Volusia and Flagler counties attended the June 12 luncheon.
“We made lots of new friends and we even signed up a few new members who wanted to help our cause,” she added.
Some of those who showed up got into the spirit by donning fuzzy rabbit or dog ears, or bringing along stuffed snakes and monkeys.
Two lucky diners took home floral arrangements featuring a dog made of white carnations that was donated by The flower Market in Ormond Beach and raffled off by Rescued Hearts.
Because the event was so successful, Wade-Carotenuto said she and restaurant owner Jason Luj have scheduled a second fund-raising luncheon for Nov. 13 at his Granada Boulevard location.
“The management and staff did a wonderful job hosting and we’re really looking forward to working with them again,” she said.
Rescued Hearts is a 501C(3) non-profit agency that organized in 2007 with a goal of helping animals in Volusia and Flagler counties.
Wade-Carotenuto said the group’s goal is to purchase land in west Volusia to build an animal shelter and spay/neuter hospital that will “never turn away any animal.”
