WHAT AN AMAZING SUCCESS!
You walked, you ran, you danced in the drizzle, and you made Walk for Paws a truly amazing day. Together, we raised more than $250,000, surpassing our goal by more than 11%. Wow, thank you! We're so grateful to our runners, walkers, community members, vendors, and sponsors for making that possible, as well as our amazing volunteers and staff who worked so hard to make this event special. Keep an eye on our social media for photos!

EVENT WILL BE HELD RAIN OR SHINE
Some April showers won’t put a damper on our event. The closer we get to event time, the possibility of rain beyond the early morning keeps decreasing, so we are making some slight adjustments to ensure a paw-some day of family fun!
Pre-register through midnight Friday, April 28th, or on site Saturday, April 29th starting at 8am to help the 48 animals per day coming through our doors seeking safety, love and hope!
Some of our activities not suited for wet grass or weather are canceled, but the event is on, and we have added a very large tented area to give cover from any lingering showers.
