Looking to take your dog for a dip before summer’s end? Then come out to the Dog Days of Summer Pool Party and fundraiser! Dog owners are invited to the College Hill Pool to let their pooches wade, swim, or jump into the public pool before it is closed and drained for the season. The pool has a shallow, zero-depth entry making it easy for dogs to get into the water. Chemicals in the water will be safe for dogs, but not for humans, so KHS and the City ask that dog owners only get in the water up to their knees. Children are not allowed in the pool while the dogs are swimming. All dogs must be leashed when not in the pool.
WHAT: Join us for a dog pool party and fundraiser for Kansas Humane Society. Suggested $10 donation per dog. Limit two dogs per owner.
WHEN: Monday, August 20, 2018. Small dogs swim from 5:30 pm – 6:00 pm. Large dogs swim from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm.
WHERE: College Hill Pool, 304 Circle Drive, Wichita, KS 67218
