Scribbles Dog Walk and Pet Fest
Saturday, September 28, 2024, 0900 - 1300
Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 28 for the 1st Annual Scribbles' Walk and Pet Fest from 9 am-1 pm!
The Norwalk Easter Public Library and NEPL Foundation are pairing up for this fun community event and library fundraiser. Participants are encouraged to register to walk (with or without) their furry friends on a short, 1-mile path near the library, ending in City Park for the Pet Fest featuring local vendors as well as a dog trick demo, food trucks, a StoryWalk, and a pet costume contest.
Registrants will receive a t-shirt to show your support of our library (thanks to Hudddle* formerly known as The Norwalk Shop for production and support). All registrations will be entered in a drawing for a $50 dog wash gift certificate to Amore Pets of Norwalk. And many thanks to Kwik Star, Paws BnB, and Pet Butler for their generous sponsorships - you are so dog-gone kind!
Don't have a dog? Purchase one of our adorable stuffed puppies-on-a-leash to walk with you under ticket sales for $5, while supplies last.
Norwalk Fareway is providing water and snack stations for dogs and their humans along the walking path. Save some room as food trucks will be offering tasty treats for purchase after the Walk!
D'Ice Cream Man - mini-donuts, ice cream treats, and warm pretzels
Magoo's Pizza - breakfast pizza and pizza slices
The Sandwich Shop - pulled pork, mac and cheese, and deli sandwiches
Tro Sno - shaved ice treats
Pet Fest vendors will be on hand following this fun walk, so you can meet other pet enthusiasts. Vendors include Hope Animal Rescue, Hudddle* (formerly known as The Norwalk Shop), Norwalk Easter Public Library Foundation, Norwalk Fire Department, Norwalk Hometown Pride, Norwalk Parks and Recreation, Norwalk Police Department, Norwalk Rotary Club, Patty L Pampered Pets, Paws BnB, Pet Butler, Prelude Assistance Dogs, Starbucks, and Whiskers TNR.
Enter your pet in the Pet Costume Contest to take place in City Park at 10:30 am. All registered participants in the Scribbles' Walk have a costume contest registration included for their pet. Others can register their pet online for a small fee. Our celebrity judges will choose the Most Original costume; Best Literary-Themed costume; and Funniest costume with Fareway gift cards as prizes!
Dog Trick Demonstrations every 15 minutes between 11 am and noon in the Norwalk Dog Park. Patty L Pampered Pets will show off some dog-gone good tricks.
Kids and families will enjoy the StoryWalk along the "Pathway to Reading" in Brownie Park. Dog's Colorful Day by Emma Dodd is the featured book.
Registration packets with t-shirt will be available for pickup at the library starting Monday, September 23 during regular library hours. Don't miss it - the Scribbles' Walk and Pet Fest is sure to be a tail-wagging good time!
