PAL Pet Show and online contest
The City of Summit Department of Community Programs is announcing the annual Police Athletic League (PAL) Pet Show will be held on Saturday, May 13, on the Village Green, located at 356 Broad Street.
Registration for the free event begins at 1 p.m. and judging begins at 1:30 p.m. In the event of rain, the pet show will be held on Sunday, May 14.
The competition will be organized into two categories: a competition for dogs only and an all-other pet exhibition. In the dog show, small, medium, and large dogs will compete with their owners by walking across the stage in front of the judges. The all-other pet exhibition will include animals such as cats, reptiles, and birds on an auxiliary stage. All pets must be kept on leashes or in pet carriers during the event. Prizes will be provided by the PAL and awarded for each category, and for participation.
Residents may also participate in the online pet show contest by emailing a photo of their pet in any Summit park to dguidajr@cityofsummit.org. The Department of Community Programs will post all photos on itsFacebook page. The pet photo that receives the most likes by May 13 will win the digital media award.
