Henderson’s ‘Bark in the Park’ is Saturday at Cornerstone Park

Henderson’s “Bark in the Park” event returns this weekend.

The 17th annual event is set for 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday at Cornerstone Park, 600 Wigwam Parkway in Henderson. Admission is free.

The city expects at least 3,000 people — plus their dogs — will attend.

Activities include a dog agility course, interactive games, a clay paw print station, dog hydration and splash-and-play area, photo opportunities, music, a doggie cakewalk (10:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.), an adopt-a-pet showcase (10:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.), a Henderson Police Department K9 unit demonstration (noon), an ostrich egg drop race (10:15 a.m., 11:15 a.m., 11:45 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 1:45 p.m.) and free caricature drawings (11 a.m.-1 p.m.), the city said in a statement.

All dogs must be on a leash and have a handler who’s at least 10 years old, according to the statement. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.

Residents who are interested in adopting a dog are also encouraged to attend.

A shuttle to overflow parking at RC Willey, 20 N. Stephanie St., will be provided.
