Woofstock Seeking Vendors, Performers, Silent Auction Donations

by John Weckerle

The Town of Edgewood is hosting its first Woofstock Pet Expo and Adoption Festival Saturday, August 20 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the new Edgewood Athletic Complex just north of Edgewood Elementary School.  The event will help fund an animal care facility in Edgewood.  Several agencies will be on hand with dogs and cats available for adoption.  Reduced-price tests, vaccinations, spay/neuter, nail trims and more will be provided, and animal-related exhibitors will offer merchandise, collectibles, animal gear, and arts.  The events will include a 7 a.m. dog walk, a mock dog show, a 2 p.m. silent auction and a Dunk the Dog Catcher tank.

Organizers are seeking more food vendors, silent auction items, and entertainers willing to donate a little time.  For more information, including contacts, see the event flyer.
