SICSA Pet Adoption and Wellness Center will host a community celebration today to mark its 50th anniversary.
The organization began as a grassroots organization in 1974. The goal is to improve the lives of wild animals and promote pet adoption, according to a spokesperson.
“We are extremely proud of this milestone,” said Jack Omer, SICSA’s President and SEO. “Being a resource to the community for half a century has been an honor and we hope we have the privilege of doing so for another 50 years.”
SICSA places more than 2,000 dogs and cats and performs more than 4,000 spay/neuter surgeries each year, a spokeswoman said.
It said on social media that there will be vendors, games and activities.
It is from 11 am to 3 pm in the 8100 block of Washington Church Road in Washington Township.
