It’s happening as I type….and, maybe, as you read this.

If you’re reading it between 11:30 am and 3 pm on May 1, 2016….

May Day! Drag to the Rescue! A dog adoption and fundraising event to benefit Ginger’s Pet Rescue, hosted by Seattle’s own Sylvia O’Stayformore with the help from her friends is happening down in the International District at the Theatre Off Jackson, 409 7th Ave. S (oddly enough, just off of Jackson!) from 12 noon to 3:00 pm. And, for Capitol Hill folks, you have two ways to get there now! Either via the new trolley linking the Hill with the I.D. OR via the just opened light rail station!

You have no excuses not to attend…

If you’re in the market for a furry friend, Ginger’s Pet Rescue will be there WITH adorable furry creatures you can adopt. If you’d just like to check it out and support this amazing organization, then just show up. It’s a FREE event but please bring SOME money to donate to a great cause. There will be an auction and a drag show with Sylvia plus guests like Empress of the Cosmos, DonnaTella Howe and the very sainted Bobbi Jo Blessings.
