This weekend was one of the first weekends Paws in the Park attended Centennial Olympic Park’s Family Fun days. We made our own Tattoo Parlor, had corn hole, frisbee golf and even brought two sweet adoptable Atlanta Pet Rescue pups along for the adventure.
Pebbles and Clover were glad to escape the shelter for the day. The kids at Centennial loved the tattoos and we really got the word out about Paws in the Park.
Did you know that this 2nd Annual Paws in the Park Committee has been meeting since the end of the 1st Annual Paws in the Park Committee?
Planning Atlanta Pet Rescue’s largest fundraiser of the year takes a whole team of dedicated volunteers. There’s much to plan and a variety of needs that must be taken care of in order to ensure a successful day at Centennial Olympic Park.
