- By Ginny McCabe Contributi­ng Writer

Adoptable animals are the focus of this weekend’s “The 80s Block Party” at Municipal Brew Works in downtown Hamilton.

The Animal Adoption Foundation will promote its cause with a 1980s-themed community block party fundraiser at the popular brewery, which has outdoor seating and allows customers to bring their dogs on leashes.

“This is a way for us to get out into the community, and let everyone know we’re here, and we’re having fun, and we would love for everyone to be a part of what we’re doing. And what we are doing is trying to raise money so that we can continue to save animals that have been abandoned, neglected or abused,” said Lacy Olander, assistant director of the Animal Adoption Foundation.

Admission is free to Saturday evening’s event, and patrons can participat­e in various activities, including raffles, games and split-the-pot. Individual donations will be accepted.

There will be food trucks on site, and a portion of MBW
