While we’d love for you to come shop with us this weekend, what we’d love even more is if you’re able to attend the chili cook off fundraiser Save Monroe Strays Rescue is hosting this Saturday.
We currently have an incredible senior foster kitty through them and also adopted a lovely, spirited and chirpy tripod kitty they saved a few years back.
They do so much to help in our community, and have the biggest hearts.
Please consider supporting them this weekend, and if you’re able to, consider donating on behalf of family and friends for holiday gifts. 💕
🌶️ COME FOR THE CHILI. STAY FOR THE “OOOH, I WANT THAT BASKET!”
You’re sampling chili. You’ve found your favorite. You’re feeling pretty confident about your choice…
Then someone points out the raffle baskets, and suddenly you have more important decisions to make. 😂
Join Save Monroe Strays on Saturday, November 7, for a family-friendly evening with good food, music, and a little friendly competition!
Your $8 advance ticket includes sampling the chili entries, voting for your favorite, and enjoying music from a live DJ. No cooking required—our contestants have that covered!
While you’re there, check out the raffle baskets and save a little room for the donation-based dessert table. Because being full of chili and being full of dessert are clearly two different things.
Raffle entries are purchased separately.
Bring your family, invite your friends, and spend an evening helping the animals in our care simply by showing up and enjoying yourself. You get a night out. They get support while they wait for their forever homes. ❤️
Saturday, November 7 • Starts at 6:30 p.m.
