Bring your canine companions for a day of fun at the 18th annual Bark 'n' Splash dog swim event!

The entry fee is $10 per dog – and as always, human companions are free! Attendees must provide written proof of a current animal license for their dog(s).

Dogs are allowed to swim and frolic in the aquatic center’s activity pool, which features a pooch-pleasing play structure and sloped beach-style entry into the water. For the water-shy, there’s abundant lawn for romping and doggie socializing. (After the event, the pool is drained, sanitized and inspected as standard post-season procedure.)

A variety of event sponsors and local pet-related businesses will be on hand to provide information and free samples.

Call the Steve Miklos Aquatic Center at 916-461-6640 for more information about the event.
