Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Five rabbits will vanish in a wall of fire.
A woman will turn into an African leopard.
No, it's not an episode of the X-Files. It's a two-hour magic show to benefit the Kosciusko County Animal Welfare League.
The show will be at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday at Lakeview Middle School Auditorium.
The cost is $5 per person.
Launda Ewell, magician and event organizer, said all four participating magicians donated their time and efforts so that all money raised could be donated to the shelter.
"We've got lots of corporate sponsors who donated money to help us do the show," she said.
There will be comedy and children's magic. There will be events adults will find entertaining, too, she said.
Ewell said she organized the event because "I always wanted to help the shelter but I wasn't sure how (before). ... We really want to help the animal shelter."
Previously, the tickets were $8 but were reduced in price when tickets didn't sell well. The Friday show also has been canceled. Anyone who paid $8 can get a $3 refund at the door. Friday tickets can be used at Saturday's show.
For those who can't afford to go, R.R. Donnelley & Sons donated 20 tickets which are available at Paws & Claws on a first-come, first-served basis.
Tickets are on sale at Paws & Claws, Video Time in Pierceton and the animal shelter. For more information or to reserve tickets, call 267-3008 or 839-0705.
