Sandy Paws Sled Dog Club Of Tampa Bay

Lots of sled training and some fun pulls around the lake. Bring a sturdy leash, an energized furball and wear some comfy running shoes. We will focus on sled pulling and wearing out the dogs for a fun afternoon. We'll have a raffle prize as usual and enjoy some social time.

At every Meetup we have our Sandy Paws t shirts available for $15 each and X back harnesses, semi choke collars, belly bands, mushers belts and various sled dog bumper stickers.

RSVP is mandatory!
We meet to line up behind the Museum on Bayshore, Please arrive BEFORE 9:00am to be able to park on the back streets behind the Museum. They will close down the streets at 8:00am and you will have to park further away and walk to the Museum. There is NO PARKING at the Museum.
You will need to sign the waiver for the city of Safety Harbor before participating. You can do that the day of the parade or at our November event.
Address of Museum is listed above and you can mapquest it. We will be the last unit to go so we probably won't leave our setup area until around 11:00am so if you aren't there by 10:00am you can still come but be prepared to walk to the start.
We are the LAST unit in the parade, right in front of SANTA so we are a very popular addition to this event.
We will all wear red shirts and Santa hats and we have holiday collars for the dogs. Please wear comfy shoes and be prepared for a mile + walk. We will have dogs on the gangline pulling the sled as well as some dogs walking beside greeting the crowd. This is a very slow paced walk.
Be sure to bring dog water and treats, poopy bags, snacks and water for you, comfy shoes and your patience! We should be done by 12:00ish
This is a family friendly event so bring your crew!
See you at the parade. You MUST RSVP here so we know how many dogs are attending. Only dogs who have experience on the gangline will be allowed to be on the team that day. For day of help or info you can call or text Peggy at 727.224.4726

Pictures with Santa for all the furballs, holiday dessert potluck for humans and dogs, secret gift exchange game and then a run around the park with Santa!

If you like to bake, please bring a people/and/or dog dessert to share and bring a "dog related" wrapped, unmarked, surprise gift to participate in the game.

Bring your camera to take your own personalized pictures with Santa. We will not be printing out photos on site this year. We will be posting all photos on our Meetup.com and Facebook pages if you want to borrow pics from there. We do not charge for this event, but we will be having an amazing holiday raffle prize!

This is a family event. Please bring everyone for a fun day!
