Skipper’s Smokehouse hosts Hillsborough shelter animal benefit on Sunday

‘Scratch My Back’ features The Lint Rollers and more.


Stop reading if the idea of live music and helping shelter animals sounds like a terrible time. Skipper’s Smokehouse — which has been no stranger to hosting benefits or doing good deeds for human and animal-kind alike — opens its doors, holds a raffle and takes donations on behalf of the Friends Of Hillsborough County Animal Shelters can continue its mission of reducing euthanization of pets in shelters.

Rock and blues bands play the tunes, and pets are unfortunately not allowed to attend.

24th Annual Scratch My Back w/The Lint Rollers/Dukes of Juke/Denovo. Sat. May 25, 5 p.m., $10 minimum donation. skipperssmokehouse.com
