Dance Party Benefit for Iron Horse Sanctuary’s Barn Cats
April 5 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Iron Horse Sanctuary, a nonprofit dedicated to improving animal welfare and ending cruelty, is hosting a Dance Party Benefit to support its growing barn cat population. The event will take place on Saturday, April 5th, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Mountain
Lake Park Lodge.
The celebration will feature dancing, a silent auction, raffles, kids’ activities, snacks, and beverages, all aimed at raising funds for over 35 cats recently rescued from a colony in Pine Island.
This large-scale rescue effort, which more than doubled the sanctuary’s original cat population, follows the relocation of a colony of over 70 cats living in unsafe conditions in the Pine Island area. For over 9 months, the local shelter and volunteers worked tirelessly to trap, vet, and care for the cats. While many were placed into homes or shelters with adoption potential, others—due to their temperament—had to be returned to the site. Iron Horse Sanctuary stepped in to rescue over 35 of these cats, offering them a safe, loving environment where they can roam freely on the farm, enjoy sunbeams, and receive the veterinary care they need.
Funds raised will directly support the cats’ food, medical care, and shelter. The event promises fun for the whole family, including dancing, a silent auction, raffles with fantastic prizes, and activities for kids. Light snacks and beverages will be available.
Tickets will be sold at the door, and donations can be made online via the sanctuary’s website. Iron Horse Sanctuary invites everyone to join in this celebration of community and support for their rescued cats.
