It’s a party for the pooches. Please come to the Pool Pooch Party and let the furry ones enjoy a dip in the pool. All pool chemicals will have been turned off at the closing of the pool for the season Aug. 8, so it’s safe for dogs. Dog owners can only enter the water up to ankle or calf height. The waves at the Wachter Aquatic Complex will not be turned on for this event.
Two sessions:
12-1pm – Small dog party; dogs weighing less than 30 pounds.
1-2pm – Big dog party; dogs weighing more than 30 pounds.
Participants should enter through the pool gate on the east side of the pool.
This is a free event. However, donations will be accepted to support improvements at the Century Bark Park. Each dog handler will be asked to sign an event waiver at the entrance.
