FavorHouse Round-Up, Giving DV the Boot

On Friday, June 21st from 6-10pm, FavorHouse of Northwest Florida will debut their new signature fundraising event at the Escambia County Equestrian Center located at 7750 Mobile Hwy. in Pensacola, FL. The FavorHouse Round-Up is going to be a toe-tappin’, kneeslappin’ good time in support of the programs and services that help domestic violence victims in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties.

The Round-Up is featuring live music from Blackwater Country, walk-about food tasting, activities such as a mechanical bull and rodeo roper, bourbon and wine pull, dancing, live auction, and more. The Executive Director of FavorHouse, Tracie Hodson, states that the FavorHouse Board of Directors are coordinating this new fundraising event and they are pulling out all the stops. “We wanted an event that our community would be excited about supporting.

The Round-Up is fitting because we all need to come together as a community to ensure that domestic violence has no place here. Our Board of Directors have many wonderful ideas on how this event can grow year after year. While this year the event is for adults over 21 years of age, we plan for it to grow into a highly anticipated annual family event,” states Hodson.

Grab Your Hat and Round-Up Your Posse, We’re Giving Domestic Violence the Boot! FavorHouse is currently seeking community sponsorships and tickets will be going on sale Friday, April 26th at the early bird price of $50. Ticket prices go up to $60 starting June 1st.
