Calling all dogs…and dog owners.

Bluffton’s Relay for Hope plans a “Bark for Life” event at 9:30 a.m., Saturday, May 18, according to Lynda Best.

This is the second canine event in the Bluffton group’s Relay. Here’s how your dog, and you, can participate.

Registration is $25 and those registrants receive a t-shirt.

“Participants will start at Maple Crest at 9:30 and walk the bike path to the Mennonite Home and will have a water break and visit residents who would like to see the dogs for 30-45 minutes." says Best.

Following that, the participants will walk back to Maple Crest, where resident there can pet the pooches.

Best said that awards will be presented at Maple Crest. Persons wanting more information may contact Best at 419-296-2790 or email her at [email protected].
