We are again asking Dane-a-Thon participants to get sponsorship from friends and family or simply make a donation. Your generosity helps support the many Great Danes we rescue who are desperately in need of help and makes it possible to save those who would otherwise be euthanized because of prohibitive costs to get them well.

Event Date: Sunday, May 3, 2020 – Rain or shine!
Start Time: 11 a.m.
Location: PARIS FAIRGROUNDS, 139 SILVER STREET, PARIS, ON

Admission Fee: For those who do not have Pledge sheets – $15 per person (8 y-o or older). This entitles you to a BBQ luncheon, a drink and a day of fun with your canine companion(s).
No charge for Children under 8, and/or those with Pledge Sheets of $60 (or more).
