Million Dog March at McLaren Park on June 2
We can't break the world record without you and your dog!
Sunday, June 2, 2013, 10 AM - 2 PM
McLaren Park, San Francisco
Join SFDOG and the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department for the first-ever
Million Dog March, a fabulously large dog walk and festival of fun and games. Help
us:
* Break the Guinness World Record for largest dog walk
* Show the size and passion of the Bay Area dog community
* Raise money for Friends of SF Animal Care and Control
* Enjoy a great time in one of San Francisco's most beautiful yet underutilized
parks
The Million Dog March will be a beautiful three-mile walk in McLaren Park, through
grassy fields, around scenic lakes, under redwoods, over charming wooden bridges,
and along trails with some spectacular views of San Francisco. After the walk, there
will be a festival with music, vendors, information tables and games and activities
for you and your dog.
The cost of the event is $25 in advance/$30 on the day of the event, which includes
registration for one dog and its human family members as well as one t-shirt for
you and a bandana for your doggie. Any proceeds from the event will be donated
to Friends of SF Animal Care and Control, to benefit city shelter animals. Because
of the number of participants, we ask that you keep your dog on leash during the
walk.
