The annual LRAA Golf Tournament looked a little different this year, but it was a swinging success! The 9-hole tourney moved to The Golf Ranch this year. Golfers didn’t let a late April cold front curb the enthusiasm. Of course any event isn’t possible without the support of sponsors and volunteers. A big thank you to all who helped make this a big hit for LRAA. |

Calling all animal lovers. The City of Richardson’s Animal Shelter is in need of volunteers for several programs. If you are interested in fostering a pet, click here for more information.

If you would just like to donate, you can help make sure animals receive their heartworm treatments or donate anything from the Donation Wishlist. |
