Calling all tails, fins and feathers — the Lakeside Pet Parade is back!

·         Best Trick

·         Pet Human Look-Alike

·         Most Patriotic Pet

This year’s grand marshal is Kalahan, Danbury Township Police Department’s K9, who will be escorted by an officer.

 

Pre-registration is not required. Participants should arrive at the Cannon Lawn by 8:45 am. Please note that this event may not be the right fit for every pet. Whether you’re participating with a pet or simply coming to watch, all are welcome to enjoy the parade and festivities.
