Rescue Runway Show
The heart of the event, where adorable Fremont Humane alumni dogs (and a few special friends)  strut their stuff on the runway. Models will showcase fashion courtesy of our partner, Barn & Barrel, alongside our canine friends.

Frank Sinatra Impersonator
This year, we're adding a touch of vintage charm to the event with a special performance by one of the best Frank Sinatra impersonators around, Derek Evilsizora. Prepare to be serenaded! 

Silent Auction
Bid on a variety of enticing items and experiences in our silent auction. From art pieces and luxurious getaways to gourmet baskets and pet-centric products, there's something to pique everyone's interest.

Food and Beverage
Enjoy delicious food and refreshing drinks available for purchase throughout the event. Whether you prefer a sophisticated wine or a bubbly soda, we've got your cravings covered.

Dress Code
We encourage a smart-casual dress code. However, we want you to be comfortable and enjoy the event, so please dress in what makes you feel best.

COVID-19 Precautions
We are committed to ensuring the safety of all our guests. We will follow all state and local COVID-19 guidelines and encourage all guests to do the same.

Silent Auction

Our silent auction is a critical part of the fundraising effort for Rescue Runway. Each bid you place contributes directly to the medical care and well-being of animals in our shelter, making a tangible difference in their lives. This year, we've worked hard to curate a selection that appeals to a wide range of tastes and interests.

Each item is donated by our generous supporters, who share our passion for animal care and welfare.

To help you navigate, the items are categorized by type, such as Artwork, Experiences, Goods, Services, and more. Each item has a detailed description, estimated value, starting bid amount, and a photograph to give you a good idea of what you're bidding on.

Remember, bidding isn't just about the thrill of winning an auction—it's also a fun and meaningful way to support our mission. So, ready your bidding pencil and make a bid that makes a difference!

Happy bidding!
