Furiends Wine & Dine at Pekin CC supports TAPS no-kill shelter
PEORIA, Ill (WMBD) — The TAPS No Kill animal shelter relies strictly on private donations to save hundreds of pets, and Saturday, April 5, is their popular Furiends Wine & Dine event at the Pekin Country Club.
The executive director of TAPS no kill animal shelter, Tori Menke, along with adoptable furiend, Linus, told WMBD This Morning, that 'we're only funded by donations, so the more people come to our events, the more animals we can help.'
Menke did stress getting your ticket to the Furiends Wine & Dine event as early as possible, because the event traditionally sells out, and this year people are already raving about this year's Joey's Slider Meatballs, Monica's Turkey & Cranberry Sandwiches and Rachel's Lobster Mac & Cheese.
The evening will also include meet & greets with adoptable puppies, auctions and raffles, and music from Matt Eckberg.
The Furiends Wine & Dine event is Saturday, April 5, at Pekin Country Club. Doors open at 5:00 pm with dinner at 5:30 pm, and tickets are $100, at TAPS
