NORWICH – Touted by organizers as a day of representing pooches, cool cats and music, the 3rd Annual Woofstock will be held from 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday at the Blarney Stone Pub, 26 South Broad St.

All proceeds from the event – which has drawn upwards of 100 to 120 people the past two years – will benefit the Chenango County SPCA, according to Executive Director Carol Hedlund.

The yearly fundraiser will feature a full afternoon of live entertainment, a 50/50 raffle, refreshments by SPCA board members and friends of the SPCA, and an opportunity to win a pair of tickets to the 2011 Fur Ball. Slated to perform are returning favorites Williams Road – formerly known as The Foreheads – and the Suspicious Hats, in addition to Nick and the Boys, the L.J. Gates Band and Splitrail.

As in the past, performers at Woofstock will donate their time for the fundraising effort and Suspicious Hats’ guitarist Tim Andrews said he and his bandmates are more than happy to do so.

“We’re all animal lovers, every member of the band has a pet or pets and it’s a really good time,” stated Andrews. “It gives people a chance to find out more about the SPCA and how they can help out. It gets people out to support a good cause.”
