New Rochelle Humane Society to mark century of caring for critters

Posted by: Ned P. Rauch - Posted in New Rochelle on May 31, 2011

The New Rochelle Humane Society will celebrate its 100th anniversary in a little more than a week with a bash complete with deejays, stars (like members of the cast from “The Sopranos”), a silent auction, a raffle, plenty of food and Jilli Dog, billed as the world’s only poker-playing dog. The event will take place at the Wykagyl Country Club in New Rochelle from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. on June 9.

The organization, which takes in more than 500 dogs and 700 cats every year, began celebrating last week with a visit from Mayor Noam Bramson, centered, pictured here with Bocker the Labradoodle and members of the Humane Society’s board of directors on May 25.
