Walk for Paws
Presented by The Bridge to Hope & Dunn County Humane Society
Join DCHS and The Bridge to Hope at Wakanda Park on Sunday, October 13th for our Community Festival and Walkathon as we raise awareness for Domestic Violence and create a brighter future for both people and pets in our community.
This is more than just a walk — it’s a day of family fun, all while supporting your community’s non-profits. Together with The Bridge to Hope, we’re raising awareness for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and raising vital funds for both organizations.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and through this event, we’re acknowledging that violence doesn’t just affect individuals, but families, pets, and entire communities. By joining forces with The Bridge to Hope, we’re committing to create a safe and nurturing community for all—people and pets alike. Come for the walk, but stay for the community, food trucks, raffles, games, and festivities — all for a good cause!
Walkathon
Our walkathon is not a race — it’s an opportunity to come together as a community as we walk through the beautiful Wakanda Park.
Pets are more than welcome to join! Feel free to bring your well-socialized and vaccinated pets on a leash or in a backpack, stroller, or carrier so they can join in on the fun!
Whether you are walking solo, with your family, or with your four-legged friends, your participation will help support vital services for those in need in our community.
Registration for the walk is $15 for individuals and $25 for families. All proceeds benefit the Dunn County Humane Society and The Bridge to Hope.
Help us Stuff the Truck by bringing an item donation for The Bridge to Hope or DCHS to the event and get a $5 coupon towards Walk registration or Bounce House wristbands!
Community Festival
Spend the day at the park with us for activities for the whole family! We’ll have local food trucks, and raffle baskets with fantastic prizes. We’ll also have inflatable bounce houses, face painting, a chance to “Ask A Vet” with Dr. Lisa from Pet Care Xpress, and more! There’s something for everyone!
