On December 4, 2017, the Little Ponderosa Zoo and Rescue suffered a devastating fire that ended the lives of many animals who called this facility their home. On December 30th, the Longhorn Steakhouse in Turkey Creek (http://bit.ly/2Coa29s) expertly and graciously hosted a pancake breakfast fundraiser to help rebuild the zoo. The whole thing was organized by Tamara Longworth with lots of help from her amazing family. https://www.facebook.com/teamlongworth
