Description

The Central Pennsylvania Humane Society has teamed up with Dell Delight Legion Park in Hollidaysburg to create dog-friendly events during the Paws in the Park weekend.  The Stray Dog Strut involves you with or without your dog on a non retractable lead.   There will be timed 5k and 2k runs that you can run with or without your dog, or a fun, untimed 2k that you can walk with or without your dog. Join the fun on Sunday, September 13th, at 12:00pm.  Unique prizes for you and your pet, goodie bags, food, snacks, and more!  All pets must be up to date on rabies vaccinations and must be socialized/friendly around other people and animals.

In cooperation of guidelines for Covid 19, we are asking you to wear a mask for the starting point, and while you are standing together prior to the beginning of the race.  You may remove your mask once the race begins.   We apologize for the inconvenience, but ask you to remember that our animals did not create this pandemic, but have been very hurt financially by it.   Your understanding is appreciated. 

On-site registration is also available at 11:00am.  After the race, enjoy the many events occurring at Paws in the Park!  Both races begin and end at Dell Delight (Legion) Park.
