We are excited to announce that Animal Adoption Center is hosting their 1st Annual “Whiskers, Wags and Wine” Doggie Walk/Run to benefit our efforts in helping to provide temporary shelter and medical care for rescued cats and dogs for the purpose of finding them suitable and permanent new homes. This years event will  take place at the gorgeous Autumn Lake Winery located at 870 West Malaga Road on Saturday November 4th at 10am.  (Please note:  If you are participating in the event please show up BEFORE 10am to check in and pick up packet. Event takes off at 10am and course will be closed once 10am wave goes through.)  We will provide a 1 Mile Walk or 3 Mile Walk/Run through the vineyards.  Participant's are welcome to run or walk for the 3 Mile option, however, there will not be a time keeper.  Both 2 and 4 legged family members are welcome to participate in either walk/run event.  Pets must be leashed at all times and NO RETRACTABLE leashed allowed.  Strollers are allowed but know that most of the race will be through the vineyards. We will have music, vendors, a food truck, and baskets at the event.  The most exciting part of this event is that, for participants 21 years of age or older, registration comes with a complimentary glass of wine! You can sit back and enjoy the outside courtyard after the race with your pet and shop our vendor tables while listening to music!!  We will also have games set up for your enjoyment in the courtyard!  It is such a fun day to come out and enjoy the fall weather!
