LAS VEGAS NEWS

As we gear up for the 2nd annual Las Vegas Grand Prix happening from November 21-23, we want to give you a heads-up about the ongoing construction at the Flamingo Bridge over Koval Lane. Crews are hard at work, and this has completely blocked the intersection, which is causing significant delays for residents and businesses in the area. 

So, if you’re traveling through this area, be prepared for potential traffic headaches. The F1 team is aware of the community’s concerns and is making adjustments, but it’s best to plan ahead during this busy time!

WHAT WE'RE LOVING THIS WEEK

This week, we’re excited to share that The Animal Foundation is hosting its first-ever Foster Field Trip Day on Saturday, October 26, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.🐾 This unique event aims to give 25 shelter dogs over six months old a much-deserved break from their shelter life and a chance to explore the world outside their kennel. 

You can pick up these lovable pups between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. and return them by 6 p.m. If you’re looking to adopt, you’ll have the opportunity to learn more about the dogs during their adventure together. Plus, the Animal Foundation waives adoption fees for foster parents who decide to adopt! So, grab your friends and family and head out for a fun-filled day while helping these dogs find their forever homes. Click here for more info 🐶❤️🐾
