GHS Happy Trails Walk-a-thon

June 2 @ 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM

TAKE A STEP AND A PAW FORWARD TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF VULNERABLE ANIMALS IN OUR COMMUNITY!

JOIN THE PACK! IT ALL STARTS WITH YOU!

The Guelph Humane Society is thrilled to invite you to join us in creating more happy tails at our HAPPY TRAILS WALK-A-THON proudly presented by Wellington Laboratories!

The second annual Happy Trails Walk-a-thon is a fun-filled day for the whole community with vendors, contests, food, prizes and more, all starting with a 1km or a 5km route for attendees to choose from. Participants can walk alone, in groups, or teams to raise money to support care, shelter, veterinary and adoption services for vulnerable animals in Guelph and Wellington County. Best of all, participants can sign up and bring their canine companions to walk.

The Happy Trails Walk-a-thon aspires to be one of the Guelph Humane Society’s largest fundraising events with a GOAL TO RAISE OVER $35,000!

All donations raised for GHS’s Happy Trails Walk-a-thon will go toward GHS’s Greatest Needs fundraising priority. Donations will support the Guelph Humane Society’s programs and services, including animal rescue, shelter, and adoption, as well as education and advocacy initiatives.
