The
Office of Community
Revitalization (OCR) is excited to invite you to the 2nd Palm Beach
County Community Therapy Dog and Fitness Event on Saturday, May 11, from 8:00
a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Glades Pioneer Park located at 866 State Road 715, in
Belle Glade.
This
innovative community event is aimed to boost personal confidence, reduce stress, and provide
stability to our community. It combines fitness, mental, and emotional health by
introducing pet therapy with a team of therapy dogs provided by Paws Be with You,
and the Wet Kisses Pet Company. The event exemplifies
OCR's ongoing commitment to enhancing the quality of life for Palm Beach County
residents through collaborative partnerships and tailored initiatives.
The event will
begin with a AKC Fit Dog
Walk, a fitness walk designed to promote physical health and insights into
canine bonding and training. The
event will transition into a Pet Therapy Presentation to learn about the
benefits of pet therapy and witness live demonstrations of canine bonding and training.
Engaging, interactive activities will be provided for all ages featuring music,
food, and games.
