Animal lovers can soon dance to the music of Frank Sinatra, enjoy a glass of wine, a signature martini, food and a tribute to Ole Blue Eyes.

All this and more will take place at the NJ Aid for Animals’ “Just in Time” Gala to benefit the Sweet Pea Fund for Abused Animals.

The event will be held Saturday, May 21 from 6 to 10 p.m. at Laurel Creek Country Club located at 701 Centerton Road.

This elegant, semi-formal event will feature appetizers, dinner, dancing, dessert and a special performance by singer Pete Cannella, whose impression of Frank Sinatra is a tribute in sound and style.

“People have asked what the ‘Just in Time ‘moniker means,” said Kathy McGuire, President, NJ Aid for Animals. “We rescued Sweet Pea just in time — a pit bull left for dead — as she would have been euthanized had NJ Aid for Animals not rescued her from the shelter. So we built a gala around Sinatra’s famous song ‘Just in Time’ with what we did for Sweet Pea.”

“Just in Time” will only feature a few high end raffle items which include: a hand painted portrait of Sweet Pea; a $300 travel voucher from AAA; a DNA test for dogs and a $1,200 gift certificate from Davis Cosmetic Plastic Surgery.

“We’re thrilled to hold the Just in Time Gala to raise much-needed funds for costly medical treatment for abused animals in our area,” said McGuire, president, NJ Aid for Animals. “By supporting the Gala, you’ll help save the lives of abused animals in South Jersey. If you cannot attend you can still donate to the Sweet Pea Fund by going to www.njafa.org.”

Top event sponsor, Mt. Laurel Animal Hospital co-owner, Chris Torre, DVM, adds “I knew what ‘Just in Time’ meant when NJ Aid for Animals brought Sweet Pea, a ‘bait dog’ survivor, to our facility last year,” Torre said. “Abused by dog fighting criminals, Sweet Pea recuperated after extensive medical treatments and inspired this medical fund to help other abused animals.”

Tickets to the “Just in Time” Gala are $100 each and can be purchased through Mt. Laurel Veterinary Hospital at www.mlahvet.com or EventBrite at http://tinyurl.com/hcnzzaj.

The gala is sponsored in part by Mt. Laurel Animal Hospital, Merck Animal Health, Stokes Pharmacy, Country Pet Lodge and Pet Valu.
