    AHS Car Raffle

    The Austin Humane Society and Roger Beasley Mazda are teaming up to celebrate two major milestones with their annual raffle: AHS will celebrate its 70th anniversary, and RBM will celebrate its 50th anniversary, so they’re “Wheelin’ in the Years” and raffling off a beautiful Mazda 2021 MX-5 Miata Grand Touring convertible. Each ticket purchase provides one night of safe and warm shelter, nutritious food, quality medical care, and lots of love for a cat or dog who is waiting to find a home. Raffle ticket purchases must be made by a Texas resident over 18.
    Drawing held Sat., April 9, noon. $20 each or three for $50.

    Desperately Seeking Lifeguards

    Maybe not desperately yet, but last year's shortage of lifeguards led to some limited hours and pool closures. To ensure summer fun for everyone, the city's Aquatic Division is hiring hundreds of lifeguards for its many pools, with positions starting at $15/hour and with ongoing training opportunities, including over spring break. Lifeguards must be 15 or older, and the city points out it can be a great start for a career in safety and public service. The city also recently announced a $500 bonus for those who complete the summer.
