Holiday Fund-Raiser to Benefit MSGAO

The MSGAO table will have greyhound ornaments to paint for $10. Different styles will be available. Finger foods, desserts, beverages will be served.

For $15, you can purchase a painted greyhound ornament, hand-crafted by our very own Adam Loeffel, owner of Seize the Clay. They are ready to hang on the tree or to give as a gift.
