Event Description:
The State is going to the dogs, again! It’s that time of year for everyone’s favorite dog event. Yes, that means you can come to the movies with your best (dog) friend! Admission for your fur-baby is just $3 and directly benefits dogs awaiting adoption at Kate’s Furreka Recue. This year will be full of excitement with a pup-cup station, a live caricature artist to draw your furry friend, dog toys from our favorite brand Goughnuts, and raffle prizes from some of our sponsors. Film: Balto (1995) Plot: In this animated feature, a deadly diphtheria epidemic strikes the remote town of Nome, Alaska. With the life-saving medicine located hundreds of miles away, the residents decide to send out a sled-dog team. Balto (Kevin Bacon) — a half-wolf dog ignored by all except a goose, Boris (Bob Hoskins), and two polar bears — is chosen to run but is disqualified by lead dog Steele (Jim Cummings). When the other dogs get lost in the snow, Balto risks his life to rescue them and deliver the medicine. Doors and event at 11am, film at 12:30
