PAWS takes on Chili Supper for Humane Society

The annual Chili Supper has always been a special event where the little guy can support the Humane Society of Central Arizona.  It's a great feed at a great price, as the gentleman above will attest.  And you can't beat the cause.

Popular populist event slated for Nov. 9

The weather will be changing soon, and it is time to think about comfort food for dinner. If you are thinking chili, mark your calendar for the 14th Annual Chili Supper on Tuesday, Nov. 9.

This year the chili supper will be sponsored by PAWS in the Park and all the proceeds will go to the Humane Society of Central Arizona (HSCAZ).  The PAWS in the Park organization built and helps to maintain the Off-Leash Dog Park.

The chili supper will again be at the Elks Lodge on Airport Road from 4 to 7 p.m. It is still $7 for adults and $4 for children 12 and under. Enjoy an incredible meal of chili, macaroni and cheese, salad, rolls and homemade cupcakes. Tickets are available at the HSCAZ Animal Shelter, at 812 S. McLane Road; Humane Society Thrift Store at 404 W. Main Street, the Chamber of Commerce office at 100 W. Main Street; Payson Public Library, at 328 N. McLane Road, and at the door.

Along with great eats, you can take a chance on 50/50 raffles, and a U-Pic raffle. At the boutique, check out the terrific items donated by the generous businesses, organizations and individuals in the area. They’ll make great holiday gifts. Come and enjoy a great meal, visit with friends, and listen to the blues played by the 5-piece band “Blue Frog.”  There will truly be something for everyone.

All proceeds go to caring for the homeless animals of Rim Country. It’s the perfect opportunity to have a great evening and to contribute to a worthy cause all at the same time. For more information about the event or about the Humane Society of Central Arizona, call the shelter at 928-474-5590, PAWS in the Park member, Donna Rokoff at 928-472-1542 or Humane Society volunteer Betty Raveling at 928-468-7132.
