The Dog Bowl Games at Camp Bow Wow® Delaware North, A Super Grand Opening Celebration!

PRLog (Press Release) - Jan 06, 2010 -
Newark, DE: It’s a dog’s gruff-iron fantasy come true! Camp Bow Wow® Delaware North invites friends and neighbors to join them for a Grand Opening kick-off party: The Dog Bowl Games on Saturday, January 16, 2010 from 10am to 2pm. The upscale Doggy Day and Overnight Camp at 301 Ruthar Drive, just of I-95 between Christiana Hospital and the University of Delaware, has covered all the bases to guarantee a howling good time for families and their furry family members. Admission is free.

Camp owners and leaders-of-the-pack, Laurie Williams and John Lewis are celebrating the grand opening of their digs for dogs with a home team rally that would make the Blue Hens proud. “We’ve planned a dog-gone-wild afternoon for people and pups of all ages,” said Lewis, “so that no one will be sitting on the bench during the event. Dog Bowl Games include a pet/person look alike contest, pet tricks, the best dressed pooch and more.”

Take home a memory with a pup-trait taken by photographer John Lewis, or make a donation to the Bow Wow Buddies Foundation, which supports animal rescue and canine cancer research. Pups can enjoy naturally delicious puppy treats from Waggies by Maggie & Friends, lovingly baked in Wilmington by a group of persons with intellectual disabilities; watch training demonstrations and get more information about signing your pup up for classes. Humans looking for the pawfect pup-mate, look no further. The Delaware Humane Association will be on the sidelines with a team of pups looking for a home and a new leash on life.

Puppy parents can also tour the Camp and register for door prizes while their children enjoy doggy art activities and meet Scout, the Camp Bow Wow mascot. Hungry humans can satisfy their cravings with pizza provided by Bianco’s Pizza. WSTW FM, 93.7 will broadcast live from the festivities from 11am to 1pm with DJ Mike Rossi as master of ceremonies.

What would a grand opening at Camp Bow Wow be without the dogs? So if you’d like to bring yours and he or she hasn’t been to Camp yet, please call. Since all the fun will be indoors we will need all dogs registered before they can enter the building, registration is quick and easy. Just call camp with your dog’s name and vet information.
