Healing ARTS Veterinary Center will be hosting its 4th Annual Halloween Party and Pet Costume Contest on October 30th, 2010. The event will be held from 5pm to 7pm and will take place at 2216 Palm Beach Lakes Blvd. in West Palm Beach.
The entry fee is $5 per person, which includes one raffle ticket, entry for your pet into the contest and free food and beverages. Children are admitted free of charge. Awards will be given for the top three costumes and other prizes will be raffled. Additional raffle tickets will be available for purchase.

All proceeds from this event will go to benefit the Caesar Memorial Cancer Treatment Fund, which helps pet owners struggling with the costly treatment of pets that have been diagnosed with cancer. Last year this event drew almost 150 people, including West Palm Beach Mayor Lois Frankel.
