Dog Walk and 5K to Benefit Local Animal Welfare Organizations

On Sunday, August 18, grab the pooch and head to Maple Glen for Shirley's Run, a 5K beginning at Maple Manor Swim Club on Dillon Rd. for adults and children, and a dog walk.

The one mile dog walk will include prizes for biggest dog, smallest dog, oldest, best dressed, best trick, longest distance traveled and more.

The 5K Run and 1 Mile Dog Walk will benefit the Shirley Schriftman Fund for Animals. Schriftman lived on Dillon Rd. in Maple Glen until her death in 2009. The fund makes donations to local organizations that either rescue animals or train them in service to the community.
