THE WOOF-A-THON IS ALMOST HERE!!        A reminder from Pearl...
 
Hey Max, Fido, Taffy, Rover, Butch, Aggie, LuLu, Mr Perkins and all you guys out there.
 
Our day is almost here.  Get your 2 legged friend on a leash and drag him if necessary to North Bay park Saturday, August 10, 10-4 for our day of fun and games.
 
Did you hear, they are having a nice walk for US – one mile for you little guys, and two miles for us studs.  We also get lots of treats, and can visit 10 booths with stuff for us.  
 
You can let your people know what you like and maybe they will buy it.  There will be water pools for us to splash in, bowls for nice cool drinks, a talk on obedience (Do they think we need that one??) and another about what we are thinking.  (HUMMMMM!)  
 
We can also watch an agility team showing their stuff.  (Hey, I can do that too!! ) and even get your toenails trimmed at a booth.  Your person friend will have food at the Lions (no real cats allowed) area, and boy, some of the raffle items are really cool!  I understand that Pastor Bob will be there to bless us all, and you can all meet his dog, Mercy.  (That's one tall guy – I can walk right under him.)
 
Someone will be taking pictures of us having fun, and a Tarot Card reader will try to figure out our future.  (All good I'm sure.) And oh yes, don't forget the contest!!  Get ready to strut your stuff in competition for prizes and a trophy.  (How about that?)
 
So – can I look forward to seeing all of you on Aug 10?  I'll be the Logo dog being carried around as it should be.  After all – I am a Princess!!
 
Sincerely,  PEARL

Woof-a-Thon seeks volunteers for new North Bay venue

Wilma Spike had walked with her pet in the Tacoma Dog-a-Thon for over 13 years and always marveled at how the event raised thousands of dollars for charity.

Now she’s transplanted that passion here in Ocean Shores as the North Jetty-area resident prepares for the second annual Woof-a-Thon, this year in North Bay Park on Aug. 10.

“I had done it since almost the beginning of the Dog-a-Thon,” Spike said last week. “So I knew it worked. I didn’t re-invent the wheel. I thought, ‘Wow, why couldn’t we do this in Ocean Shores.’” ....
