Spayghetti dinners -and lunch, too!

Next Thursday, Spay-ghetti dinners, a fall staple at the Nelson household, are available for lunch, too. 

The delectable pasta and sides you've enjoyed for years will also be sold for noontime noshing, and all proceeds benefit the spay/neuter programs of the Roanoke Valley SPCA

Winner, winner, spay-ghetti dinner.

The grub will be served up on Oct. 15 at Second Presbyterian Church, 214 Mountain Avenue in Roanoke. 
Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Supper commences at 4:30 and lasts until 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are $6 in advance, $7.50 at the door and orders of 25 or more qualify for a $1 off discount.    

You can purchase tickets online by clicking here , but they are also available at all Valley Bank branches and at the RVSPCA.

The meal is a generous portion of spaghetti with sauce (meat or vegetarian), bread, salad, dessert and beverage.  You can dine in or carry out.  Drive-up pick up is available at the church for to-go orders.

All proceeds support the RVSPCA spay/neuter clinic, which prevents littering, which means fewer unwanted and/or homeless pets.

This year's sponsors include Karen Chase and 224 Designs, Fresh Market, Kroger, Pepsi Bottling Group, Roanoke Fruit & Produce Company, Roanoke Natural Foods Coop,  Salem Printing, The Hotel Roanoke, Valley Bank, Village Flowers, and Wlldflour Bakery.

Foster homes for the holidays

The Roanoke Valley SPCA is participating in the national “Foster A Lonely Pet For the Holidays” pet fostering program.

Over 13,000 pet rescue organizations nationwide are trying to empty the kennels for Christmas, encouraging families to open their home for the holidays to an adoptable pet waiting for a forever home.

Fostered pets can be picked up between December 18-23, and can be returned to the RVSPCA between December 30-January 2.

The RVSPCA will provide all needed supplies and support to the temporary families. You can view all of the pets online at www.rvspca.org, or visit the shelter to meet them.  The goal is to have each of these pets into a home by noon on December 23.

Ann Marie Sweeney, foster coordinator for the RVSPCA, will answer questions about the program for people interested in making this Christmas a happy holiday for a pet in need.  Contact Sweeney at 344-4840, ext. 208 or e-mail asweeney@rvspca.org.
