We’d love for you to be part of
our Walk-A-Thon and Festival!
This event benefits the Glastonbury Dog Park, a joint project by
the Town of Glastonbury and local dog lovers. This community
park will include a fenced area where dogs can run and socialize
off leash legally and safely. A separate area for small dogs
will be included. Some of the park amenities will include
benches, waste receptacles, dog litter bags, water stations and
more. It’s really important that we begin to raise funds now!
Yes, it’s our 1st
Fundraiser and Dog Park Festival!
The
funds raised at this event will go toward creating a fun dog
park for both dogs and their humans. In addition to raising
funds, this event will provide a fun day for everyone,
especially our four-legged friends. Additionally, events
such as these help to foster a broader community of dog lovers!
