Event will help LTWC keep helping animals

Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care is having a fundraiser on Oct. 19 at the Lake House restaurant in South Lake Tahoe.

The animal rehab facility, which has been in operation for nearly 40 years, is on a campaign to raise money to sustain operational costs. Those expenses are expected to increase substantially when the new center opens on Al Tahoe Boulevard.

Money raised this week will go directly to operations to give native animals and birds a second chance.

The dinner is at 5:30pm. Tickets are limited. They are are $150 per person. They may be purchased online or by calling 530.577.2273.
