Vendors, sponsors & volunteers sought for annual Sassabration event

Vendors, sponsors, and volunteers are sought for the third annual Sassabration, taking place July 15 at Sassafras Eclectic Food Joint, 1500 Old Hot Springs Road (in the Carson Hot Springs complex).

The event raises money for local nonprofits that provide outreach and health services to the LGBTQ community, and is conducted by restaurant owner Jayme Watts.

The day’s festivities include a Drag Race Bike Ride, at 11 a.m., which starts at Brewery Arts Center, 449 W. King St., and concludes at Sassafras, as well as an array of vendors and live music at the restaurant throughout the day.

Carson Hot Springs also will be open at no cost to celebrate Customer Appreciation Day, so take a swimming suit and towel.

For information, call Watts at 775-884-4471, or email sassabration@gmail.com.
