Aloha Vibes & A Pawsitive Impact!
Get ready for a tropical night of fun with your pup — all while giving back to the Ocean Beach community!
Join us on Saturday, July 12th at 5:00PM for Pups & Paradise, a summer celebration on and off the water featuring a Group Paddle, Glow Pack Walk, Community Fundraiser, and Dog Food Drive.
This special event supports Paula’s Pet Pantry and the Ocean Beach Women’s Club, both working hard to help humans and pets in need right here in OB. Whether you want to paddle, pack walk, or do both — we’ve got a spot just for you.
Donate dog food or money and earn raffle tickets to win amazing prizes from local businesses.
Paddle with fellow dog-lovers in a fun, easygoing group session.
Glow up with your pup for our light-up walk through Liberty Station.
Make an impact while having the time of your life.
What to Expect:
Meet & Mingle at 5:00PM
Check in, meet other awesome humans and pups, and drop off your dog food donations for Paula’s Pet Pantry. You can also donate money to support OB Women’s Club and their mission to uplift the OB community.
Every donation (food or money) earns you a raffle ticket for a chance to win a great prize.
Community Paddle
Bring or rent a paddleboard and hit the water with us for a feel-good paddle session. No race, no pressure — just a beautiful time on the water supporting a great cause.
Glow Pack Walk
After the paddle, it’s time to light up the night. Purchase a Light Up Pups glow collar for $20 or bring your own glow gear. We’ll take a fun 1-2 mile (about 45 minutes to 1 hour) group walk and light up Liberty Station with our glowing pup pack.
Why Join?
- Support pups and people in need within the OB Community
- Strengthen your bond with your dog in a fun and social environment
- Enjoy a beautiful evening on the water with a dog-loving community
- Win prizes through our donation raffle
Let’s paddle, glow, and give back together. Grab your board, leash up your pup, and help us spread aloha through action.
