Marion County Fair Taking Donations for Indianapolis Animal Care and
Control

INDIANAPOLIS  --  The Marion County Fair has arrived and they're doing
something special to aid Indianapolis Animal Care and Control.  

Monday, July 21st is "Indianapolis Animal Care and Control" Night.  It
is the chance to get into the fair for a dollar cheaper by bringing pet
supplies.  Those include everything from food to kitty litter to
blankets to even teddy bears.  

Volunteers will also be on-hand with some animals looking for a good
home.   

Animal lovers will also want to check out the IMPD K-9 Unit
demonstration at 7 PM in the grandstand.  Gates open at 4:30 PM.  

Monday, July 21st is also "Ladies Night" and ladies get two dollars off
admission with another adult.  

Animal Care and Control is always looking for donations of either
supplies or money.    

The Marion County Fair runs through July 26th at 7300 East Troy Avenue.
