Debbie Miller SVFA “Wags & Whiskers” Fundraiser to be Held May 8th at the Valley City Eagles Club

- By TR Staff treditor@times-online.com

Sheyenne Valley Friends of Animals is hosting their annual Debbie Miller Wags and Whiskers fundraiser on Saturday, May 8th at the Valley City Eagles Club, 5-7 p.m. Each year, this event raises funds for the organizati­on, which is crucial to their mission: providing for local animals in need. The community is invited to gather at the Eagles Club on May 8th and take part in the 2021 Wags and Whiskers fundraiser, where you can enjoy an All-You-Can-Eat spaghetti dinner, a silent auction, Norwegian raffle, dessert walk and more.

SVFA would love if anyone in the community with an affinity for baking might consider donating some delicious baked goods (like cakes, pies, brownies, cookies, etc.) to their Dessert Walk. They’re also looking for volunteers who might like to donate things like blankets for dogs/cats and their humans, homemade dog/ cat treats and Meow Mix (trail mix for every pet’s human).

Got Donations?

The SVFA is also looking for new or gently used, grand prizeworth­y items to be used at the event’s Norwegian Raffle and Silent auction.

If you would like to help, please contact Jenni at Jenni.svfa@gmail.com or call 701-8408332.
