Save a horse by dancing n’ dining Friday

PICAYUNE — A dinner dance to benefit the Mississippi Equine Rescue & Adoption organization will be held on Friday, November 6 at the Crystal Palace, 3036 MS Hwy 43 North at 7 p.m.

Whoopie & the Skeeter Bait Band will be performing for dancing and dining entertainment and an auction will be held later in the evening. The price of admission is $5 for the entire family and tickets are available for advance purchase at Cales Feed & Farm Supply, Picayune or at the door.

A homemade spaghetti dinner with salad, garlic bread, and a drink will also be available for $7 for adults, $5 for children between five and 12, and children under five eat free.

An auction hosted by auctioneer Annie Carter will also be held during the event and features a number of items.

Taylor, an acclaimed artist of western scenes, is also a movie actor best known for his long running role on TV’s Gunsmoke series.
