Brevard Humane Society will be hosting their 15th annual Mardi Gras: Paws in the Park event with numerous activities including a silent auction, pet contest, bake sale, music, food/beverage vendors, rescue groups, a lure course, and even a pet parade. It will be held at Riverfront Park in Historic Cocoa Village on Sunday, February 28th.

Founded in 1952, The Brevard Humane Society is Brevard County’s oldest established animal welfare organization. A no-kill for space shelter, BHS is dedicated to speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves. BHS educates the community on responsible pet ownership and the humane treatment of animals, advocates for spaying/neutering to reduce the homeless pet population and provides the best quality care to Brevard’s abandoned animals by placing them with responsible, caring pet parents in forever homes.
