Humane Society plans walk-a-thon

Registration has begun for the 6th Annual Humane Society of Wayne County Walk-A-Thon. This is fast becoming the most popular human/canine event in New York State.

The walk will be held September 22. There are goody bags for all walkers, Zanies Berber Bears for the first 200 pre-registered walkers, bandanas for all dogs, and long sleeve T-shirts for all participants collecting $25 in paid donations. Awards will be given to the human and canine raising the most money. All registered participants will be entered and eligible in the drawing for some truly fabulous door prizes.

You and your dog can elect to walk a 1, 2, 3, or 4 mile course to raise money for the Humane Society. There are plenty of rest and water stops along the way. Along the course there are many activities to entertain both you and your dog. After the walk, enjoy a delicious chicken dinner from Burnham's Canal Side Restaurant, while listening to the music of the Local Shepherds.

There is a $10 registration fee with a maximum registration fee of $20 per family. You must be registered to participate. You may register by mail or in person at any one of the following locations and receive your Zanies Berber Bear on the spot:
