Spring is here (hooray)! That means it’s time to lace up for some fast-paced fun for the APA’s Fast and the Furriest 5K run or 1 Mile walk!
We’re upping the ante and taking this race to the casino, Hollywood Casino. This brand new course is professionally timed and measured for you to enjoy with or without Fido.
Take a gamble on the 1 Mile Pooch Poker Walk, which offers a more leisurely pace with the added fun of creating your best possible poker hand along the way. Both the 5K and 1M come complete with a race t-shirt and the best goody bag in town, so join in the action and get ready to break a sweat with your dog.
Proceeds from the APA’s Fast and the Furriest will benefit our mission of bringing people and pets together, advancing humane education and creating programs beneficial to the human/animal bond.
