Mill Race fundraiser to help dogs in need of medical care
A downtown event Saturday will help raise funds to provide medical care for local dogs in need.
In 2020, Angie and David May created the Nala Fund, named after their dog who had recently died. The goal of the Fund was to help local veterinarians provide emergency medical care for dogs in need and those waiting to be adopted at local shelters.
On Saturday morning, CSA New Tech High School seniors Olivia Walker and Sofia Kotowski are hosting Nalapalooza at Mill Race Park as their senior project.
Part of the events will include a Scavenger Bingo Hunt. Players will be able to buy 1 to 3 cards with activities to complete for a chance to win prizes with 100 percent of the funds raised going to help the Nala Fund.
There will also be food and other vendors on hand, with a portion of their sales going to support the Nala Fund, a bounce house and free dog microchipping.
You can start your scavenger hunt at 9 a.m. and drop your card off by 11:30 a.m. to take part in the prize drawings.
The Nala Fund is administered by Heritage Fund: The Bartholomew County Community Foundation and the Bartholomew County Humane Society.
The event is free and you are invited to attend. Pets on leashes are also welcome.
