We will have a 1-mile dog-friendly (off road) walk/run to benefit the Angel Fund ($20 registration), a dog talent show with prizes, face painting, vendors, a food truck, and more. We also will be participating with local shelters to raise awareness of their services and collect donations!
*Route GPS was strange but here is the overview of the course *all course sections are straight rather than the zigzag image that appears.
