Now in its 23rd year, Bark in the Park is ACS’ longest-running annual event–and it’s bigger and better than ever! The day kicks off with a professionally timed 5K or a more leisurely 1-mile Woof Walk, where participants are welcome to walk, jog, stroll, or run through the scenic trails of The Parklands of Floyds Fork, Beckley Creek Park.
As soon as the race beings, the festivities continue with a lively family-friendly festival featuring pet-friendly vendors, live entertainment, an exciting interactive lure course for dogs, costume contests, kids’ activities, our beloved Pet of the Year contest and so much more!
Make sure you stick around for the Festival after the race!
