Golden Ticket Benefit

I’ve Got a GOLDEN Ticket - that’s the theme for our upcoming benefit! Sooner Golden Retriever Rescue is planning a benefit dinner and silent auction in Tulsa!

We are very excited about this! We hope to raise lots of money to help continue our efforts in rescuing homeless and injured Goldens in Oklahoma and surrounding states.

Our very own local celebrity, KTUL News Channel 8’s Kristin Dickerson will emcee the event for us. Kristin is known locally for her generous donation of her time and talents to animal rescue events like Golden Ticket. Thank you Kristin for all you do!
