For the second consecutive year, the Santa Ynez Valley Humane Society & DAWG has captured the Harvest Cup at the annual SYV Scarecrow Fest, sponsored by the Solvang Chamber of Commerce.
Last year, their scarecrow couple stole the show with a charming wine date. This year, the couple took their relationship to the next level by tying the knot.
The wedding-themed display, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Humane Society, featured the bride and groom, supported by a dashing best man and a lovely maid of honor.
”This contest is a fun way to bring attention to the services we offer, like our low-cost spay and neuter clinic with our veterinarian, Dr. Shana Schank, and training courses led by our talented on-site dog trainer.” said Carla Mead, board chair for the Santa Ynez Valley Humane Society & DAWG.
“We hope that by putting our work in the spotlight, we can continue helping pets find their forever homes and make our community a safer, happier place for animals and people alike,” she said.
“I want to thank our amazing team, who put their hearts into caring for the animals every single day,” Mead said. “Their dedication and hard work inspire me and keep our mission moving forward.”
