Baked goods to raise money

Sweet treats will be on offer for the Tauranga SPCA Cupcake Day with the Greerton shelter's first Cupcake Day Fun Day today.

Families are invited to the Family Fun Day the shelter on Alach Street from 10.30am until 2.30pm to enjoy bouncy castles, face painting, a barbecue and petting station.

The aim of the day is to raise awareness of the SPCA and funding.

Tauranga SPCA Cupcake Day coordinator Hannah Cobb says chef Peter Blakeway will be judging the cupcakes entered into the cupcake competition.

The animals up for petting will also be up for adoption.

'Cupcake Day provides much needed funding for the shelter, which currently holds more than 40 animals.

'We 100 per cent rely on public funding and donations, so it's an avenue to bring in more funding.”

Public cupcake stalls will also be outside Animates on 2nd Ave, both today and tomorrow, at Bayfair Shopping Centre today and Monday, and at Red Square on Monday.
