Readers are invited to Dixie Dew’s birthday party Feb. 25 in Cleveland

After receiving numerous requests, columnist Ronda Rich is issuing an open invitation to readers of her Dixie Divas column to Dixie Dew’s sixth birthday party.
The dachshund, who appears regularly in the column, will celebrate the event on Sunday, Feb. 25, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Smithgall Woods Humane Society and Animal Shelter, located just outside of Cleveland, Ga., on Ga. Highway 75 at 4832 Highway North.
“Dixie Dew’s Dog-licious Birthday Bash will spotlight the Humane Society and all the wonderful, adoptable animals housed at the shelter,” said Ronda Rich.
“Dew’s birthday was such a success last year that we want to do it again and spotlight a wonderful cause – other animals who need a loving, pampered home like Dew has,” Ms. Rich said.
Guests will have an opportunity to meet the columnist, Dixie Dew and other column regulars including the irrepressible and every popular Mama.
Schwan’s Home Delivery will be on-site to supply hot dogs, hamburgers and other surprises. Additionally, there will be birthday cake, door prizes and games for the kids.
In lieu of a birthday gift, Dixie Dew has requested that donations be made to the Smithgall Woods Humane Society and Animal Shelter in her honor. The guest-of-honor would also be most pleased if a few loving families could find a deserving pet to take home.
