This event is to raise money for American Cancer Society's Relay For Life. It's $20 registration for the first dog and $10 for each additional dog.  However if you don't have a dog there is no need to worry because there are going to be plenty of adoptable furry family members there! There's going to be games, food vendors, silent auctions, a photo booth, and even contests (best pet costume, best trick etc...)

Soldier Dogs for Independence will be there to spread awareness about their organization. They help veterans get their life back by matching them up with a rescue dog.  Together the veteran and their dog go through a 25-week training program where at the end the dog will take a test to become a fully certified service dog for the veteran.  It's one small way to help give American heroes their lives back.
