The Grand Rapids Griffins will host their third annual “Pups and Pucks” Fall Walk-a-Thon presented by BeeneGarter L.L.P. next Monday, Oct. 11 at Mackenzie’s Animal Sanctuary in Lake Odessa, Mich.
Beginning at 5:45 p.m., Griffins players, coaches and front office staff will walk rescued dogs for pledges made by fans through firstgiving.org/grg. All animal lovers are encouraged to attend (with or without a dog to walk), to collect their own pledges and to enjoy a host of activities that begin at 4:30 p.m.
Fans wishing to participate in the walk-a-thon are encouraged, but not required, to collect pledges for the event. For those unable to collect pledges, or those simply wanting to attend, there is a $10 entry fee per person. Children three and under are free.
Fans bringing a dog to walk must register their dog and present proof of healthcare and vaccinations. Early registration begins at 4:30 p.m. or fans can go online to download registration forms.
