July 11th is the 3rd annual Goldens in the Park fundraiser. This event serves as a fundraiser for the dogs & cats of Woods while creating an event to see just how many golden retrievers will fit in one place at one time. Last year’s event hosted close to 200 blonde and red headed dogs. The funny part is seeing how many Golden Retrievers can fit into the same kiddy-pool while their owners’ backs are turned. http://www.slocountygoldenretrievers.com
