Animal Shelter holds 6th Annual Home for the Holidays The Rockingham County Animal Shelter will be hosting its 6th Annual Home for the Holidays event. This is a great time to come out and visit your local animal shelter. The event is being held at 250 Cherokee Camp Road in Reidsville on Saturday, December 17th from 1:00pm to 5:00pm. Our special guest, stopping by is Santa Claus straight from the North Pole. He will be here to listen to your child’s wishes for Christmas as well as taking pictures; you are also welcome to bring your pets to sit on Santa’s lap. This is a great time for the community to visit the shelter and to get to know local vendors that will be here to help with any last minute gift ideas from baked goods, crafts, jewelry, candles, art work and so much more. If you are looking to add a new member to your family this Christmas the adoption fees are the lowest of the year. Dog adoptions will be only $40 and cat

adoptions will be their lowest ever at only $10! The adoption fee includes your new pet being up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and getting a microchip. This year the shelter will also hold a "Gifts for the Animals" drive. Items needed for donation include canned dog and cat food, non-clumping litter, plastic travel crates, cat toys, hard chew toys and bones for the dogs to play with. In addition to all the exciting things happening this Saturday the shelter will also be hosting a vaccination clinic. All vaccines will be offered for only $5.00. This includes the Rabies vaccine, the distemper/parvo vaccine for the dogs and FVRCP for the cats will be offered. Please feel free to contact the animal shelter at (336) 394-0075 for any questions regarding the event and also if you would be interested in being a vendor at the event. It is free to join.
North Carolina Department of Transportation District Engineer Jason Julian told the Reidsville City Council on November 8th, that the project of widening the 6-mile stretch of Freeway Drive from South Scales to N.C. Highway 14, will take another month to finalize giving the new date of December 15th as the target. The prior report on the project had proposed a completion date of November 1st of this year, which was one year late from the original target date/deadline. English Construction has brought the project to the last stages yet they are well overdue to finish. Most of what is left is striping, painting and details, which means they were about 5% away from completion at presstime. When the construction is finished then the landscaping can begin. The City of Reidsville is working with Duke Energy to put together a plan for any additional lighting on the roadway. This has to get the Department of Transportation’s approval.
