Hi friends! Reef the fox here with your weekly “Reef’s Report.”
On Aug. 2, Pawsitive Beginnings hosted a joint fundraiser, “Comedy for a Cause,” with our friends from the Florida Keys Wild Bird Center at the Murray Nelson Government Center in Key Largo. Over 100 animal-loving members of our community stepped out on the town for the evening to support both nonprofits and enjoy some laughs.
Gwen Filosa, Key West comedian, hosted the show and brought along her funny friends, Andy Griffiths, “Conch Jim” and Aubrey Urban. For 90 minutes, that government center turned into a full blown comedy club. My mom even told me that people were texting her from Publix the next day because everyone was talking about how fun it was. We made the Saturday shopping at Publix chatter. I think that means we have officially “arrived.” We have gotten some inquiries about when we might do it again. The answer is, don’t you worry, it will happen again, my friends. We had so many amazing raffle prizes donated by our generous community and the entire event was sponsored by the Key Largo Princess Glass Bottom Boat.
All money raised from the comedy event will be split 50/50 between Pawsitive Beginnings and the Florida Keys Wild Bird Center. I know we are all so grateful for the support that was shown last Friday night and we definitely cannot wait to do it again.
So, until next time, Reef, over and out!
