bark in the park
August 11, 2011
 

On Saturday, August 13, 2011 the Arizona Diamondbacks hosted their first ever "Bark in the Park" event allowing their 4-legged fans to join with their pet parents to cheer on the DBacks as they played the New York Mets.

A portion of each ticket's cost was donated to the Arizona Humane Society. Although not an "official" AZGRC event, several members and their dogs attended including Judy Lewis and Blondie, Christine Orantes and Polly, Laurie Rogers and Kayli, Cathy and Jim McIntyre and CJ and Simon, and "honorary golden for a day" Ollie and his mom, Cathy Anderson.  In addition to the game, their was a pre-game "Puppy Parade" out on the warning track. 

Over 200 people and their dogs attended and all had a truly howling good time!  Representatives from the Diamondbacks have said that plans are in the works to have the event again at least once next year.
