🐾 Cats and Dogs 5k and 5 Hour Event

This year we will have a 5K race that will start at 8:00 and the 5-hour participants will start directly after the 5k takes off! You can run on any trail, road, or path in the Park to participate in the 5-hour event. Howl this year will revert back to the original 3.29 mile loop, so this will be a great day to gauge your readiness for a Howl PR while raising funds for the Animal Shelter.

🐶 Support the Animal Shelter

We would ask that you bring donations for the animal shelter. Their website is listed below, and the Amazon wish list is available on their homepage. Tell your friends and family you are running with and for the dogs and cats of Vermilion County, and they can show support by bringing cash donations, food or pet supplies to the park that day. Pet supplies include newspaper, kitty litter, cleaning, grooming, collars, and leashes. KRR turns over every penny of profit to the DOGs & CATS.

❤️ Reason to Participate

You’ll do something you love, enjoy the park, and get our furry friends what they need. The Shelter will have animals on sight. You can walk/run with a dog, and play with the cats.

🍔 What to Expect

New this year, we will be serving lunch available for purchase. Members and participants should bring their own drinks and snacks if using this event for Howl training. Don’t forget to bring your own lawn chairs!
