More dog park fundraisers
Now that the location issue is settled, all that's left to get a fenced-in, off-leash play area for Roanoke's pooches is to raise a pile of cash. And that's where you can help, and have fun doing it.
Here's a calendar of fundraisers I got yesterday from the dog park committee :
Cocktails for a Cause
Featuring a silent auction, a raffle and, of course, cocktails
Where: Trio Bistro, Bottle, Bar in downtown Roanoke
When: Thursday, Sept 18 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Fun Day in the Park
A cookout, a dog wash and more. A paw-friendly event; more details to follow
Where: Highland Park
When: Saturday, Sept. 27
Going to the Dogs
A downtown block party with live music and barbecue, with proceeds shared between St. Francis Service Dogs, the RVSPCA and the dog park
Where: Downtown Roanoke
When: Wednesday, Oct. 29
