Watertown Humane Society hosted "The Furry Feud" fundraiser at Chivaree on Park
On September 24, 2022, Chivaree on Park welcomed the Watertown Humane Society (WHS) for a heartwarming fundraiser known as "The Furry Feud." This family-friendly game show event united community members in support of the shelter, providing an engaging way to raise vital funds for their furry residents. With friendly competition and lots of laughter, attendees contributed to a meaningful cause while enjoying the charming atmosphere of Chivaree on Park. The event showcased the venue's ability to host diverse gatherings, making it an excellent choice for community-focused events.
The "Loan Rangers" from the Bank of Lake Mills displayed impressive teamwork and quick thinking during the Watertown Humane Society’s Furry Feud fundraiser, securing a commendable second place. Their performance emphasized the spirit of community engagement, fostering a fun and competitive atmosphere for a great cause. Although they fell short of first place by a narrow margin, their contribution helped raise awareness and funds for homeless animals in need. Such events not only highlight local businesses' commitment to social responsibility but also promote camaraderie among participants, showcasing the joy of giving back to the community.
The Watertown Area Chamber of Commerce’s “Team Smarty Paws” showcased their competitive spirit during Saturday's Furry Feud at Chivaree on Park. Despite not securing a win, the team enjoyed a day filled with camaraderie and laughter at our picturesque venue. Chivaree on Park is proud to host such charming community events, bringing people together for fun and memorable experiences. We look forward to welcoming more teams and events that celebrate the joy of teamwork and community engagement in the heart of Ixonia.
“What can we say but...WOW!! Our bodies still hurt and we’re still sleepy but our hearts couldn’t be more full! When we asked you to ‘pack the park’ you did just that and we couldn’t be more grateful! This event was 2 years in the making that we had to keep postponing and we are so lucky to have been able to make this event a success after the long wait. We hope you enjoy this quick recap of the day’s events!
We have so many people to thank that we don’t know where to start! Our volunteers: we could have never made this event possible. We are SO lucky to have a group of individuals willing to give their free time to help us when we need it the most. THANK YOU! Chivaree on Park: your hospitality and accomodations couldn’t have been anymore perfect. The most stunning location and friendly staff. We can’t wait to be back next year! Pizza Ranch: I think we can all agree that the food was delicious but the staff was just as good. So attentive and helpful and we know our guests left with full bellies and good conversation. Matt with Game Show America: thank you for your patience as we changed and added things last minute and for being a superb host. Guests/Sponsors/Donors: what can we say but thank you. This event would not have been as successful as it was without your support. We truly are so blessed with an amazing community! See you all next year at the Furry Feud!”
