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.

Mattamy Homes Relocates Corporate Offices in Jacksonville, Donates Executive Furnishings and Equipment to D. Nease High School and Rescue Mission
JACKSONVILLE - Mattamy Homes U.S. Group in Jacksonville recently donated office furnishings and equipment valued at more than $2,500 to Allen D. Nease High School in Ponte Vedra Beach in St. Johns County.
Dennis Ginder, division president at Mattamy Homes in the Jacksonville region, said the donation included 10 executive chairs, five filing cabinets, two dry-erase boards, five bulletin boards, five wastepaper baskets and a large box of miscellaneous office supplies.
Mattamy also donated miscellaneous items to the City Rescue Mission including eight filing cabinets and five boxes of office supplies.
Ginder said Mattamy Homes relocated its corporate offices at 7800 Belfort Parkway recently as new home sales associates are seeing more demand at Mattamy Homes sales and information centers at Cornerstone at Watermill, Covenant Cove and North Campus in Jacksonville, Kensington, Kings Trace and Sevilla in St. Augustine, and Durbin Crossing, The Colony at Greenbriar and Worthington Park in St. Johns.
“Visitor traffic and sales in all nine Jacksonville-area communities are beginning to pick up and we no longer need as much space or furnishings in our corporate offices,” Ginder said.

Auction and Cocktail Party to Benefit Volusia/Flagler Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter, Saturday March 20
ORMOND BEACH – A silent auction and cocktail party to raise funds for a local animal rescue group will be held Saturday March 20 in Ormond Beach.
The 2nd annual Spring Cocktail Party and Silent Auction – a benefit for the future Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter Inc. – will be from 6 to 9 p.m. at the home of members Jerry and Denise Siennicki in The Trails, according to Amy Wade-Carotenuto, the group’s founder and executive director.
“We’re very excited that the Siennickis are hosting this event for us,” Wade-Carotenuto said.
“This will help us so much in our efforts to reach our goal for 2010 of finding and buying the land to build the Rescued Hearts Animal Shelter.”
Rescued Hearts, a 501C(3) non-profit agency that organized in 2007 to help find homes for displaced or neglected animals in Volusia and Flagler counties, places dogs and cats in foster homes until they are adopted or until their “state-of-the-art-with-heart” shelter is built, she said.
The agency’s short-term goal is to obtain land in the west Volusia area and construct a facility to help decrease local government’s cost to house unwanted animals.
“This kind of thing is usually started by people who have money. Unfortunately, we’re not independently wealthy but experienced and hopeful,” Carotenuto said.
The group’s other aims are at establishing an aggressive spay/neuter program, helping animals stay at home to prevent the need for surrendering them, community involvement, and providing superior care and quality of life for animals.
Those attending Saturday’s benefit can partake of scrumptious foods created by award-winning chef Kevin Moore of Moore Fine Foods, and cocktails from a deck overlooking the Tomoka River.
A highlight of the evening will be a silent auction of artwork and gifts, including Disney World tickets, and a framed, limited-edition lithograph by Thomas Kinkade.
Tickets are $25 per person and all proceeds will be designated for the group’s Property Acquisition Fund. Reservations for the event can be made by calling Judy Thompson at 386-252-1050. For details on Rescued Hearts visit www.rescuedheartsanimalshelter.com.
