Spare Change Drive on St. Patrick's Day

Do you save spare coins often found in your car, couch, washer/dryer, pockets, and purse?

 Spare Change Drive on March 17th

On March 17th, we will collect and count coin donations at the Falmouth Dog Park.  With over 2,000 gallons of water collected during heavy rains, we need help to fix the problem.  Help us celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by changing your coins into green bills that will help us pay for driveway repairs!

All donations are tax deductible and those donating will receive a letter stating so.

If you have any other fundraising ideas to share, come to our board meeting the third Wednesday of the month at the Rec Center at 4:15 p.m., talk to a Board member at the park, or call 508-331-2929.

Your support will help us keep the Falmouth Dog Park dry, safe and fun!

Falmouth Dog Park to host “A Howlin’ Good Time” Sunday, October 23rd at 2 pm

The Falmouth Dog park will host “A Howlin’ Good Time” for both humans and canines on Sunday, October 23 from 2:00 – 3:30 P.M. The afternoon is filled with Halloween costume contests, educational, and canine health events, along with entertainment by the Falmouth Fiddlers. The public is invited to join in the fun and to visit Falmouth’s beautiful, first dog park, which opened in May of this year. A donation of $5 per family is suggested.  Proceeds will be shared by PAL of Cape Cod and the Dog Park.

“A Howlin’ Good Time” activities begin at 2:00 P.M. with a costume competition. Everyone will gather down the street at PAL (Police Athletic League), where the Falmouth Fiddlers will lead the parade of participants in a grand march down to the sidewalk to the park. 

The costume competition should be intense, as there are great prizes at stake, including everything from gift certificates and dinners, to dog treats and dog grooming. Opening the competition will be the Pairs competition, with a combination of a dog and a person, two dogs or two people competing for one of three places. Next will follow the Funniest Costume Competition; entrants can be either a dog or person in costume competing for one of the three prizes. Finally entries into the Best Character from a Book will take center ring. Again, the character can be a human or a dog! And the top three will win prizes. 

Following the costume competition, Dr. Lilan Hauser, Chief of Staff of the Falmouth Animal Hospital, will demonstrate how to perform CPR on a dog in an emergency.

Throughout the entire event, Lori Tynan, owner of East Falmouth's new pet grooming business, Snip N' Clip, will be on hand to offer a nail spa for dogs for a reduced rate of $4, which will be donated to the Falmouth Dog Park. This is a perfect chance to get your dog's nails the right length using a new sanding technique while supporting the Falmouth Dog Park.

Enter our $5 dollar raffle for five chances to win a 20" Schwinn TJ Lavin BMX Bike! For every extra dollar, we'll give you two more tickets/chances to win!

Enter our raffle for this 20" Schwinn TJ Lavin BMX Bike!

Participants will close out the fun back at the PAL facility for treats and more music until 3:30 P.M.

Note: Please do not park on the road. Ample parking is available at both the Falmouth Dog Park and at PAL, both located on the north side of Brick Kiln Road between Gifford Street and Sandwich Road.
