This year, we moved the Dog Days of Summer 5 k Fun Run/Walk to Saturday August 16th, the day before Bark in the Park, and added a Business Buddies component and this helped nearly double the income thanks to 90 participants – adults, youth and dogs – and sponsors. Congratulations to Printing for Less for having the most Business Buddies participants and to sponsor Pam McCutcheon and Barbara Bakwin of Small Dog Realty for the fastest team average. Special thanks to: Dog Days of Summer 5 K Race Sponsor: Pam McCutcheon of Small Dog Realty, race prizes from Courtney Kane and Bruce Menges of Sealtight Chinking, Neptune’s Brewery, Pizza Hut, REI Sports, Double Diamond Halter Co., and Kay Boutique Wholesale, with refreshments from Town & Country and water donated by Culligan. Special thanks to dedicated race volunteers: Board member Courtney Kane, Bruce Menges and Karin Caroline!
