This year’s 8th Annual Bailey’s Doggie Dash was another big success. The weather for the 5K run/walk for owners and their dogs at Wabasis Park was perfect with bright sun and warm gentle breezes. A great time was enjoyed be 63 doggie/owner teams and many supporters. Prizes were awarded and treats were enjoyed by people and pets. The costumed dogs were an added bonus and first place was awarded to Superdog. Many sponsors were there, some offered entertainment and give-aways.

This year’s Doggie Dash raised over $3,000 for the Foundation’s Land Legacy Fund.
These funds will be used by to purchase additional parkland for kent County citizens to enjoy.

We thank all of this years sponsors and extend our appreciation to organizer Kevin Sweeney for his efforts in making this very special event memorable and a fun time for everyone at the dash.

The 9th Annual Bailey’s Doggie Dash will be held on Saturday, October 18, 2008 at Wabasis Park.
