FIDO’s Summer Picnic for Pooches & Their People
When: Friday afternoon, June 27th
Where: Prospect Park’s Nethermead
Time: 5 p.m. until dusk
Bring Some Food
Sponsored by Fido Brooklyn
While they will have a few restaurant donations on hand, they ask that dog owners help out by bringing something as well. Those whose dogs have names begin with the letters A through G might bring an appetizer, salad or bread. If your dog’s name begins with an H through P, bring a small entrée; and for letters Q through Z, a dessert would be welcome. FIDO will provide beverages, paper goods, plastic ware, trash bags, water and biscuits for the dogs.
Their pot-luck affair will also feature the FIDO Mid-Summer Games in which canine contestants vie to see who can catch the most dog biscuits; who gives the most licks per minute; biggest/smallest foot/ears; plus stupid dog tricks. Agility equipment will be on hand for additional fun.
We will have a permit designated off-leash area.
Who’s FIDO?
FIDO in Prospect Park is dedicated to enhancing opportunities for off-leash activity as well as responsible supervision of dogs both in and outside the park. To this end, FIDO sponsors lectures and events as well as donating funds to the Prospect Park Alliance for new trashcans, Doggie Beach, dog-friendly water fountains, and even a bench and tree in memory of dogs who have romped through the Park’s meadows. FIDO’s aim is to educate the dog-owning community, the general public and elected and appointed officials about dog-related issues.
