Ugly Sweater Party Raises Donations and Supplies for Jackson County & Clinton County Humane Societies – On Saturday December 7 The Garage Bar and Grill held its 12th annual Ugly Sweater Dance Fundraiser. This year’s event was to benefit Jackson County and Clinton Humane Societies. Jeff Theisen provided entertainment from 7:30-10:30 for the dance. Over 350 pounds of dog and cat food was donated, as well as numerous other pet items. On top of all the food and supplies donated for the event, there were also several monetary donations given, with a special donation given in memory of Chandler Betts and Addy Jepsen. Thank you! All items and money was split and delivered between the two organizations. As always, everyone had a great time dancing away. Thanks to everyone for all your donations and continued support for this great event. An extra thanks to our friends at Nestle Purina for always helping out. We are excited to see what 2025’s event will bring for its 13th year. Until then, stop out to The Garage for cold drinks, good company and fun times.
