Rescue Roundup – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Got questions? We’ve got answers faster than a tumbleweed in the wind. Here’s everything you need to know before you saddle up for SafeHaven’s biggest event of the year!
What is Rescue Roundup?
Rescue Roundup is SafeHaven Humane Society’s largest event of the year!
Together with our incredible community, we raise vital funds to help animals in need find loving forever homes and continued support. It’s a night of fun, generosity, and celebration—all for a great cause.
Is there a dress code?
Western attire is highly encouraged—think boots, hats, fringe, and flannel! But don’t worry, you’re welcome to wear whatever makes you feel comfortable.
Pro Tip: Part of the venue has a dirt ground, so we strongly recommend wearing closed-toed shoes.
I’m sitting at a sponsored table. Do I need to purchase a ticket?
Nope! If you're attending as a guest at a sponsored table, your table captain will receive an email with instructions on how you can register. Keep an eye out for that message—no extra ticket purchase necessary.
When are ticket sales?
Tickets are available online now through September 19th.
After that, you can still join us—tickets will be available for purchase at the door on the night of the event.
When I buy tickets, I see that Greater Giving offers to keep my credit card info I used to purchase my Rescue Roundup Tickets. What does this mean?
Great question! If you would like to skip the registration line once you arrive at the event, select to save your credit card info under your profile. This is a safe and secure way to be ready the night of the event to bid and save lives! Cards will be charged Wednesday the 1st of October.
Who’s catering the event?
We’re fixin’ to feed you right—Pig Out BBQ will be serving up a delicious meal at Rescue Roundup!
Get ready for mouthwatering BBQ that’ll have you coming back for seconds. Vegetarian options will also be available
What kind of auctions and activities will there be?
We’re bringin’ the excitement with four ways to join in the fun and support the animals:
Silent Auction
Bid on a wide variety of fabulous items and experiences throughout the evening. Keep an eye on your favorites and outbid your friends!
Live Auction
Get ready for a high-energy showdown! Our live auction features exclusive items and packages you won’t want to miss. Raise those paddles and help us make a big impact.
Dessert Auction
The sweetest part of the night! Each table can bid on gourmet desserts made by local bakers. Highest bidder gets first pick—so make sure your table’s got a sweet tooth and a competitive streak.
Wine Pull
For a flat donation, you’ll get to “pull” a mystery bottle of wine from our collection. Some are local favorites, others are rare gems—but every bottle helps the animals!
When do I pick up the auction items I won?
Checkout will be after the Live Auction and you’ll be able to take home your items that night! We’ll have some folks ready to help you load up!
Can I donate an item for the auction?
Absolutely—we’d be thrilled to have your support!
If you have an item, experience, gift basket, or service you'd like to donate to this year’s event, please reach out to Katie at Katies@safehavenhumane.com for more information.
All donations must be received by August 29th to be included in this year’s Rescue Roundup.
Can I volunteer to help at the event?
Yes, indeed! We couldn’t pull off an event this big without our amazing volunteers.
If you’d like to lend a hand—whether it’s setting up, helping during the event, or packing up the wagons afterward—please email volunteer@safehavenhumane.com for more information. We’d be happier than a pup in a hay pile to have you on the team!
I have questions about buying tickets or registering—who do I contact?
No problem, partner! If you have any trouble with ticket purchases or registration, just reach out to Steph at steph@safehavenhumane.com and she’ll get you squared away.
