Guiding Eyes for the Blind - Fast and Furry 5K

Sat April 27, 2019 Colonial Heights, VA 23834 US Directions

Place

400 White Bank Road
Pavilion 2
Colonial Heights, VA US 23834

Description

5K Run / Walk aimed at raising awareness for the new Guiding Eyes for the Blind Running Guides program.  All ages welcome!

There will be a raffle, games for kids, and a doggie kissing booth featuring pups on program from the Guiding Eyes Richmond Puppy Raising Region.  Fun for all!

Well behaved, leashed dogs are welcome. Please note that working guide and service dogs will be present, and can be identified by harness and/or vest.  Respect their job of keeping their partner safe understanding that distracting them or greeting them without permission places both them and their handler at risk.  Maintain distance between a pet dog and the working dog.

This race is part of a Girl Scout Gold Award project to raise awareness for the Running Guides program.  We welcome donations to defray the cost of the project on the day of the race.
