2009 Heroes for Animals Dinner
Those who attended this year's Heroes for Animals Recognition Dinner had their fill of good food and wine, delightful conversation and opportunities to bid on unique auction items, all in an effort to support the Butte Humane Society and those in our community who go above and beyond their own means in order to make a difference in the life of an animal.
Congratulations to the 2009 Heroes for Animals honorees!
