davis_square | Pets in Need 16th Annual Silent Auction

It's that time of the year again: The Pets In Need non-profit animal adoption program is hosting a silent auction this Friday, November 15th from 7:00 -- 9:00 p.m. at the Somerville City Club (20 Inner Belt Rd., across from the Holiday Inn and a short walk from Sullivan station) and all proceeds from the auction will go towards the care of the homeless animals. Pets In Need is a small no-kill adoption program run privately by volunteers who have joined together to save the unwanted and abandoned animals who have come across their path.

Items up for auction include valuable Boston sports collectibles from the Red Sox, Bruins, and Patriots, stays at fashionable local hotels (The Liberty Hotel! XV Beacon!) passes to local museums, gift certificates to Somerville area restaurants (Sarma! Highland Kitchen)!) and much more -- there is something for everyone in the family! There is no admission fee, and all ages are welcome. Refreshments will be donated by a number of local eateries. A band will be playing your favorite hits from the 80s, try your luck at the 50/50 raffle, and enjoy the cash bar! All donations and adoption fees go directly to the animals.
