There's almost nothing better than wine and ribs, and Community Health Alliance is bringing both together in bulk!
"Entertainment from the Reno Jazz Syndicate, we'll have a belly dancer so you want to come out for that, we have kind of a carnival theme coming on, a silent auction and some great raffle prizes," said Emelie Williams, Executive Director for Community Health Alliance.

The SPCA of Northern Nevada is joining with the Eddy for the inaugural Get Wet for a Pet! You can dunk your friends, family or even yours truly... into a carnival style dunk-tank, to benefit pets in need!
"People of all ages have plenty to enjoy down here at the Eddy, and the fundraiser is coming at a really necessary time for us because we have had a lot of big medical costs just this month alone," said Jill Dobbs, Executive Director for The SPCA of Northern Nevada.
Bring your furry friend down, or make a new one, adoptable pets will be on scene! That's Saturday from noon-7 at the Eddy!Â
