11TH ANNUAL PAWS IN THE PARK
The Central Brevard Humane Society will be hosting the 11th Annual Paws in the Park on
Saturday, October 26th, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Wickham Park Main Pavilion in Melbourne (located on the grounds of Eastern Florida State College/formerly Brevard Community College).

This fun interactive pet fundraiser will kick-off with a quarter mile "dog" walk-a-thon around the Wickham Park Main Pavilion. People of all ages are encouraged to bring their four-legged friends along during the walk, but an animal friend is not required for participation. From the largest teams to individual walkers, everyone's support is needed to help raise funds to care for the homeless animals of Brevard. The top (3) walkers with the most pledge dollars will receive a "fabulous" prize, and the first (75) walkers with pledges of $20 or more receive a FREE "Paws in the Park" t-shirt.  CLICK HERE to download a copy of the "Walk Pledge" form. All proceeds raised from this event will directly benefit the homeless animals in Brevard County.

In addition to the walk-a-thon, the event will include the Halloween "Spooktacular" Costume contest along with the King & Queen of the Park, Companion/Pet Look-a-like and Best Pet Trick contests, music provided by Nowhere to Rum, great food, a vendor village, rescue groups and "ask a vet tech" booth. Admission and parking are FREE. All animals must be on a leash and have proof of current shots along with a county tag.
