COUNTYWIDE More than 60,000 unwanted animals are euthanized in the Tampa Bay area each year, so the nonprofit group Stop Pet Overpopulation Together SPOT is teaming up with local veterinarians to offer low-cost spaying and neutering for any cat or dog at least 8 weeks old. The prices are $35 for male cats, $40 for female cats, $40 for male dogs and $45 to $90 for female dogs, depending on the weight. SPOT offers low-cost spay/neuter vouchers online at www.SPOTusa.org. Call (727) 545-3463. PALM HARBOR Cadet Squadron seeking members The Civil Air Patrol Palm Harbor Cadet Squadron is looking for new members 12 to 21 and for adults older than 21 to be senior members or supervisors. The Palm Harbor chapter, which also covers Tarpon Springs, especially welcomes middle school students. Young people in the program attend military camps, practice search and rescue techniques in the forest, can earn scholarships to become pilots and perform community service. Adults interested in joining as senior members must go through extensive background checks. The cadets meet from 6:30 to 9 p.m. the first, second and fourth Mondays of the month at All Saints Episcopal Church at 1700 Keystone Road in Tarpon Springs. On the third Monday of the month, the group meets at Tarpon Springs High School at 1411 Gulf Road. For more information, check www.phcadet.com, call Capt.
