    NCWaterHeaters.com’s 2nd annual Rock The Shop event will be supporting Second Chance Pet Adoptions and Freedom German Shepherd Rescue. Adoptable animals from Second Chance Pet Adoptions will be on-site from 5:00 to 7:00, though the event itself runs later into the evening. While there is no cost to attend, the organizers are asking that those who can bring a monetary donation or supplies from the rescues’ wish lists please do, and all will be turned over to the animals in these two rescue organizations. (To see Second Chance’s wish list, click HERE.) Donations will be accepted until 11pm.

    While you enjoy learning about these amazing rescue groups, check out the UpZcale food truck, who will be providing delicious food created by professional chefs! After the animals leave, live music will be performed by Antigone joined by The Old Laws, Split Type, and Needle Mouse. These polished Raleigh rock bands support our animal rescues and want to provide you with an evening to remember!
