Disco Dick and the Mirrorballs are flying in from the Mainland to perform at the Fur Ball Gala.

PUUNENE – Maui Humane Society (MHS) will hold its annual Fur Ball Gala on Saturday, Sept. 7, at the Wailea Beach Resort-Marriott from 5 to 11 p.m.

After three sold-out years, the Fur Ball has become one of Maui’s premier fundraising galas, and it is crucial in raising much-needed funds for Maui Humane Society.

“Studio Fifty Fur Ball A Disco Dance Party” will include a gourmet buffet dinner, live and silent auctions as well as dancing to live music by Disco Dick and the Mirrorballs, who are flying in from the Mainland especially for this event.

“We are so excited about the upcoming Fur Ball, and we hope everyone will join us for a great night of fun, music and celebration” said Jerleen Bryant, CEO of Maui Humane Society.

Event sponsorships are available now at the Maui Humane Society website at mauihumanesociety.org or by calling Director of Development & Community Outreach Nancy Willis at (808) 877-3680, extension 218.

Individual tickets and tables will go on sale June 3 through the MHS website. Tickets are expected to sell out again this year.
