Animal Care League hopes to make this year's Mutt Strut 5K one of our most fun and most successful fundraising events of the year! While sponsorships and registration fees work to cover the costs of making the event fun for our attendees, pledges raised by runners and walkers work to provide food, shelter, medical care and hope to our shelter animals. We know how passionate you are about animals and have asked that everyone participating work to raise a minimum of $160.00.
Set up your personal fundraisng page at the time of registration.
On race day, awards will be given to our Top 3 fundraisers!
