WEST CHESTER, PA — Get ready for a day filled with fun, fur, and a whole lot of love! The Brandywine Valley SPCA has announced its annual Walk for Paws event, happening on April 27, 2024, at West Goshen Community Park from 10 am to 1 pm. This much-anticipated gathering promises a blend of activities for families, fitness enthusiasts, animal lovers, and, of course, our four-legged friends.
The event will kick off with a vibrant 5K color run, perfect for those looking to add a splash of color to their workout routine. Not a fan of running? No worries! You can enjoy a leisurely 1K walk led by Fox29’s very own Sue Serio. And for a truly unique experience, why not try yoga with puppies? Imagine perfecting your downward dog alongside adorable, fluffy companions. It’s an experience you won’t want to miss.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. The Walk for Paws event will also feature live music from The Way Outs band, setting the perfect backdrop for a day of activities and relaxation. Browse through a variety of vendors, grab a bite from one of the food trucks, and don’t forget to check out the doggie lure course—a guaranteed hit with your canine companion.
Kids will have a blast in the Kid Fun Zone, where inflatables and games promise endless entertainment. Meanwhile, animal lovers will have the opportunity to meet some of the SPCA’s adoptable pets—perhaps you’ll even find your new best friend!
One of the highlights of the day is sure to be the pet costume contest. So, dress up your furry friend in their most creative outfit and strut your stuff. It’s a fantastic way to showcase your pet’s personality and maybe even win some fabulous prizes.
But Walk for Paws is more than just a day of fun; it’s a day of purpose. By participating, you’re joining a community committed to making a difference in the lives of animals. The Brandywine Valley SPCA provides care and finds homes for over 17,000 homeless pets each year. This event is a celebration of the lives saved, the families created, and a reminder of the work still ahead. It’s a collective promise to fight for the pets that need us the most—the homeless, the neglected and abused, the forgotten and abandoned.
Don’t miss the chance to take advantage of the early bird registration special available until March 27. Remember, you don’t have to leave your canine BFF at home for this event. Dogs are not just welcome; they’re part of the family!
