It’s time to celebrate for the love of our four-legged friends.
The Humane Society of Southern Arizona hosts a banquet dinner for its 75th anniversary at the El Conquistador Resort at 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 13.
Much like the tale of two dogs and a cat that venture on an incredible journey, the Humane Society have embarked on their own adventure, except that the business knew in what direction it was heading.
In order to properly appreciate the 75 years they’ve been providing care for animals in Southern Arizona, they’re throwing an evening of history, dining, and plenty of fun.
Aside from that, you can find yourself perusing a collection of items — such as artwork by Diana Maderas — that’ll be up for the silent auction.
Also, keep your pets at home. You can let them know all about the dinner once you’ve returned home.
Plus, the guest speaker for the night will be Emmy Award-winning television personality Brandon McMillan of the CBS TV show “Lucky Dog”.
A menu has yet to be released for the dinner, but we’ll keep you updated.
The El Conquistador Tucson Resort is located 10000 N. Oracle Rd. For more information, hssaz.org.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
