Sobre el evento

Join us for a fun filled day focused on physical and mental wellness, family, fun and our furry friends!

RexRun for PAWSitivity 2024 opens at 7:00 am to visit with the doggies and get an early peek in the Vendor Marketplace! Our family 5K event kicks off at 7:50am with the singing of our National Anthem. The 5K trail run begins at 8am and is followed at 8:10am with the 5K walk (with your dog!) and the kid's run! Afterwards, treat yourself to a tasty pancake breakfast at the Flippin' Flapjacks food truck! Throughout the day, we will feature therapy and patrol K-9 training demonstrations, and the ASCO Mounted Patrol will come galloping in! Be sure to catch our colorful dog costume contest (complete with a prize basket brimming with canine fun) and participate in both our silent and live auctions that are too good to miss!

The Fitness Zone will feature bouncy houses, an obstacle course, and a selection of lawn games like cornhole and sack races for family fun. Meanwhile, children can enjoy face painting, balloon art, and, naturally, cotton candy! Don't forget to explore the Vendor Marketplace for event giveaways and to consult with specialists about your pet needs! Dogs are permitted in the event area provided they are well-behaved and on a 6-foot leash.

The star of our event is K-9 Rex, a two-year-old black Labrador therapy dog. He and his fellow K-9's with their handlers go to local schools to primarily offer comfort to students with special needs, many who are in crisis and are dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. 100% of all net profits from RexRun For PAWSitivity 2024 go to the law enforcement K-9's through the 501(c)3 nonprofit, Back The Blue K-9 Force, to purchase K-9's and their protective gear as well as provide funding for their medical needs. 

If you're at RexRun For PAWSitivity this year, you can't miss meeting K-9 Rex. His relatives Riley and Zeke and the newest additions to his family, Bear and Otis, will be waiting!
