HSCC’s signature celebration, the Best Friends Benefit, rolled out the red carpet on Friday, May 29, 2026, at The Farmhouse at Essex Resort. Hosted by Serena Magnan and WCAX Chief
Meteorologist Jess Langlois, guests enjoyed signature cocktails, delectable hors d’oeuvres, and live music from The Grippo Funk
Band—all in support of our beloved animal shelter.
Thank you so much to everyone who attended, donated, and participated in our online auction to raise funds for the Humane Society of Chittenden County. Every dollar raised fuels HSCC’s
vital community programs, helping keep people and their pets together when they need it most.
