Beaufort’s first “BARK FOR LIFE” event to be held October 20th
Beaufort’s first American Cancer Society “Bark for Life” event will be held Saturday, October 20, in the Habersham Marketplace, located at 13 Market St. The event is a non-competitive walk event for dogs and their owners to raise funds and awareness for the American Cancer Society’s fight against cancer. Registration begins at 9 a.m. and the event runs from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., with a survivor lap at 11 a.m. Individual walkers and teams may register online in advance at relayforlife.org/
The “Bark for Life” event will feature a canine costume contest, agility shows, and a survivor lap for both canines and their
companions who are in remission. This family friendly event will include activities like bouncy houses, live music, face painting and more. Participants in“Bark for Life” help the American Cancer Society save lives, helping them move closer to a world with less cancer and more birthdays.
“Beaufort is such a dog-friendly community,”said Charlie Holley, American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life Chair. “It’s time a Bark for Life was held here and we’ve no doubt that this community will step forward, support this event and make an impact for the society with their best friends at their sides.”
Bark for Life is sponsored by Annie B’s Bed and Biscuit, Beaufort Dog, DragonBoat Beaufort and Lucky Dog.
