Paws on the Pavement to Benefit Animal Rescue Efforts



The Central Arkansas Rescue Effort (CARE) for Animals, Inc. is hosting its seventh annual Paws on the Pavement 5K Run/Walk and one-mile Fun Run/Walk on Saturday, May 20 at Murrary Park in Little Rock.

All proceeds of the annual event will directly benefit CARE for Animals, Inc., a non-profit animal rescue and spay/neuter organization whose purpose is to rescue dogs and cats facing euthanasia from local animal control facilities, and to decrease the number of homeless and abandoned animals through aggressive spay/neuter programs. Since its inception in 1998, CARE has rescued more than 1,864 dogs and cats and provided 5,790 free of discounted sterilizations for pets from limited-income families.

The 5K Run/Walk kicks of at 8:00 a.m. and the one-mile Fun Run/Walk begins at 9:30 a.m. Pets are welcome to participate with their owners in the one-mile Fun Run/Walk.

The pre-registration entry fee for the event is $20 per person or $36 per family if postmarked by May 13. After May 13 and the day of the event, the entry fee is $25 per person or $40 per family. Pre-registration guarantees individual entrants one t-shirt and family entrants two t-shirts and a participant race bag.
