The annual Barks on the Boards celebration takes place on Sunday, May 31.
This event is a fun day for dogs and their owners, and it benefits the Humane Society of Ocean City.
The event starts at the practice field next to the Sports and Civic Center on the beach block of Sixth Street. There will be games at the field from
10 a.m. to noon, then a walk on the Boardwalk from
noon to 1 p.m.
Contests follow the walk back at the practice field at
1 p.m.
Entry fee is $30 per person (dogs walk for free).
First 200 entries receive one shirt per dog registration.
For over a decade, the HSOC has sponsored this event, where registered dogs have the once-a-year opportunity to walk on the Ocean City, NJ Boardwalk. Registration fee helps provide all shelter residents with the basic food, vaccines, and care needed to live happy and healthy lives at the shelter while waiting for their new homes
