The second annual Dog Days in the Park will be help in Klutho Park in Springfield on September 29th. I went to this event last year and it was tonz of fun. Except for the dunking booth, which I will not be doing again this year. Last year they had food, music, events, stuff for kids and lots and lots of dogs.
Bring the family and four-legged friends for Springfield Animal Care and Rescue Club’s 2nd Annual “Dog Days in the Park†on September 29th in Klutho Park (corner of W 3rd St & Silver St in Historic Springfield). This exciting family festival features entertainment, food, games, vendors and more!
From 11am-5pm, “Dog Days in the Park” will give you the chance to interact with vendors and pet owners from across Northeast Florida. Proceeds benefit Springfield Animal Care and Rescue Club, a non-profit rescue organization in Jacksonville. Be sure to dress up your pet for the costume contest!
