Hootie's Rescue Haven

Hootie's Rescue Haven Hootie's Rescue Haven is a 501C3 tax exempt, no kill animal rescue organization. We rescue animals, tend to medical needs, and find them forever homes.

Hootie's Rescue Haven is named after a golden retriever/afghan mix who was rescued when she was 6 months old. She was loyal, loving, beautiful, had quite an extensive tennis ball collection and had a very quirky sense of humor. She brought joy to peoples' lives until she left us, just 2 weeks shy of her 17th birthday. This organization is guided by her bright spirit.

What a glorious day! The only thing that would have made it better is if someone could have gotten that $25,000 hole-in-one! A few of our women golfers came really close. There is always next year.

Many thanks to all our golfers who gave up a beautiful Sunday to join us for a good cause. All the animals at Hootie's appreciate your generosity.

Thank you to Sugar Creek for helping us pull off a monster of a golf tournament. You are always there to help and go that extra step. We really couldn't do it without your help.

This is really Russ' tournament, Hootie's just benefits. He works hard from April to tee time to secure food, beverages, amazing golfers and silent auction items. We thank you for your passion for all the kids at the rescue.

Johnny again provided the yummy brats, hot dogs, burgers and buns and Nancy at AB provided the adult beverages. No one went away hungry or thirsty.

We always have an amazing set-up and break-down crew and this year was no exception. This group of folks has also been working with Russ since April to pull this event together. These folks get everything over to the course the night before and then get there the next day at 5:30am to make coffee, drinks, etc. They then spend the day making sure everything runs smoothly. Your team members this year were Renee, Brenda & Jennifer, Stephanie & Chris, Stephanie, Balinda, Tim and Jane.

These same folks will be setting up our Trivia Night/Silent Auction on October 18th at Ephiphany Church in South City. We still have a few tables left, so let us know if you would like to join us for yet another fun event.

I am still waiting for some totals, so will not have exact numbers till tomorrow, but you did a fabulous job and raised over $20,000 for Hooties. This includes a generous match from Toyota/Lexus.

There was also a cute little boy dog that was found running the neighborhood by the golf course. I think someone took him home and wants to keep him. Hootie's is willing to neuter and vaccinate that kiddo for free if you would like us to do so. Just let us know.

If I have forgotten anyone, please forgive me. It has been a long day and my brain is mush.

I'll leave you with some pics from the day.

Happy Friday!  Sunday is almost here and we are all super excited to host you for a fabulous day of golf at Sugar Creek!...

Happy Friday! Sunday is almost here and we are all super excited to host you for a fabulous day of golf at Sugar Creek! We will be debuting new Hootie's golf shirts with the Hootie's logo. The shirts are a sand color with the Hootie's logo in blue. They will be $30. Our bloody mary bar will again be in full swing with mixed drinks $10 and shots $5 or 2 for $8. We will also have a booze wagon raffle containing lots of top-shelf goodies. These tickets will be $1 each or 6 for $5. Will also have some other prizes that can be won with our raffle tickets, so be sure to get them at the bar, at the dice game hole or at the $25,000 hole-in-one green. Convenience fees for credit cards payments have gone up this year, so we are asking, if possible, you use cash or Venmo for your purchases. Our Venmo QR code will be scanable and should make payment quick and easy, We will also have our Square available if you need to use a card. We will also have some silent auction items such as Blues tickets for 9/18, a wine tasting for you and 11 of your friends and various golf items such as a bag, gloves, range finder, balls, along with a Budweiser cooler and Cardinals merch.

Looking forward to seeing all of you.

GM all! We seem to be understaffed for volunteers for golf this Sunday. Our golfers tee off at 8 am, so we have to have them fed and watered before they take off for a day of fun. Our typical day starts at 6am. We ice up the beverages, get coffee and hot chocolate made and set out the doughnuts. We have to set up a check-in table and the bar and check everyone in and get them to their carts. The rest of the day is spent BBQing, shuttling drinks/food out to the course, making popcorn and nachos, making drinks and selling our 'booze wagon' raffle tickets. At the end of the day, around 3-4, we break everything down and clean-up after ourselves. We usually have lots of fun with wonderful people for a good cause. Please text me 314-412-5069 if you are interested in helping out and I will give your contact to Stephanie, our volunteer coordinator. Golf course is Sugar Creek in High Ridge. Hope you can lend a hand.

Well, we released Boots today. He was very unhappy being indoors and was not getting used to people. We gave him vaccines when we neutered him and he has been eating well, so I hope he enjoys his freedom. It was bittersweet. Hopefully he sticks around and we will get to see him from time to time.

Momma Jessie did well after her spay. She has also been microchipped and tested Felv/FIV negative. She needs a loving forever home. She is very sweet, but will be shy at first. Please share so that her parents know we are looking for them.

Boots, the kid we neutered, microchipped and vaccinated last week, is healed and ready to be released. He is very feral and will do better outside. Hopefully he will choose to stick around. Our barn cat, Momma, is 14 years old and could probably use a little help keeping all these mice and rabbits in line.

The event committee is meeting a week from Sunday to make final preps for our events. Have ordered some golf shirts with the Hootie's logo and will have those for purchase at golf and trivia. They are sand with the blue Hootie's logo over your heart.

Can't wait! See you soon.

Good Morning! Things are shaping up for both golf and trivia.

Last I heard from Russ, we have one spot left to fill for golf. Give him a call if interested 314-805-7742.

We have 11 tables for trivia and can accommodate even more, so get your friends together and come on by for a rockin' good time.

With the donation from Gary & Katie, we are adding some drink purchasing options to golf such as shots of Jagermeister, Crown Royal Apple, Fireball & some assorted whiskeys. We are playing with the idea of adding a frozen drink, maybe a bourbon slush. Will also be offering Ghirardelli hot chocolate along with your morning Jo with option of purchasing shots of Baileys, amaretto or peppermint schnapps to add to your beverage. Will keep you posted.

Drink options for purchase at Trivia will include assorted red wines and maybe some dog themed drinks. Have a bottle of tequila strawberry cream, so working up a drink maybe with fresh strawberries.

Silent auction items between the two events are heating up with a Getaway to HermanHill, more beautiful jewelry from Abby Keough, amazing ceramics from Cherokee Street Ceramics, Purina basket, Tickets to the StL Aquarium, StL Blues tickets, stunning Kendra Scott Jewelry, Wine Tastings from PRP Wines, Katie's PIzza & Pasta goodies, Stumpy's Distillery Tour & Tasting, Total Wine & More wine class, psychic readings from Julie Kerns, YSL clutch and so many other things that my fingers are tired from typing.

Hope to see you at one or both events!
