Check out the We Care For Animals pet adoption on Saturday.  If you’re looking for your next best friend We Care For Animals has several to choose from whether it be canine or feline you’re looking for.

Adoption fees cover vet checks, initial vaccines, and spay/neuter.  You can be sure that you’re next best friend will have been well cared for and in good health when he/she comes home with you.

Don’t breed or buy, adopt and give a dog or cat a second chance at a happy life in a forever home.

If you love good times, family fun and BBQ you won’t want to miss this year’s kick-off to Mesquite Days.

Beginning at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, the Mesquite Recreation Center will be kicking off Mesquite Days with an old fashioned Family Fun Night and a BBQ.

The event will be held at the Old Mill Road Park right next to the Mesquite Recreation Center.
