Fund-raiser Cleans Up for Animal Group

Car wash--The LodgeIf you’re going to go out and get your wheels scrubbed, you could do worse than having it done by dancers and other staffers at The Lodge. That’s what a lot of people discovered this past weekend, when the Cars and Stripes charity car wash there (pictured) raised about $20,000 for the Metroplex Animal Coalition. Besides reminding you of that famous scene in Cool Hand Luke, the afternoon event featured a buffet, a “dunk-a-dancer” booth and a pet psychic, who took a crack at our mutt called Charity. (I sort of lost faith in the psychic, though, after she ran her hands across Charity and asked, “She’s a female, right?”) Lodge owner Dawn Rizos says the fund-raiser was such a success, she’s thinking of doing it again.
