On Saturday, July 26, Animal Protective League will hold its first annual Paws in the Park Walk-a-thon at Washington Park , from 8:30 a.m. until noon. Ask all of your friends, neighbors and coworkers to donate whatever amount they are comfortable with ... whether it’s $5 or $500, our dogs and cats will greatly appreciate their generosity. This is not a pledge for a dollar amount per mile, because the Washington Park route is only two miles. It’s just a lump sum donation to APL.
So print out the pledge form and start raising money today … bring your pledge form and the donations to the Walk-a-thon. We will be there, rain or shine. There is no set time to begin … you can join the walk whenever you get there.
Bring your dog(s), or just yourself if you prefer, and participate in the activities. In addition to the walk, there will be contests for the smallest dog, tallest dog, and dog/owner look-alike (around 10:00). Our celebrity panel of judges will consist of Libby White, Elizabeth Wooley and Marianne Manko, all from WICS-TV.
There will also be a prize for the person who raises the most money for the Walk-a-thon so START COLLECTING PLEDGES NOW. There will be morning snacks, and some wonderful items being raffled off, and doggie massages by Dianne Potter of Healing Hands Massage for Dogs and Cats will be available for those pups with tired paws.
We hope to see you there.
Thanks for your support.
Carol Rodgers
APL Volunteer Coordinator
