All Proceeds to Benefit the Norwalk River Valley Trail’s Expansion
Dogs and their humans are invited to the 2nd Annual Mutt Strut Challenge to support the Norwalk River Valley Trail on Saturday, May 18, 2019 in Wilton and Norwalk, CT. Come out with your canine companions for some fresh air and fun, while raising money to extend and improve the Norwalk River Valley Trail! Festivities will take place simultaneously at both the NRVT Wilton Loop and along the trail at Mathews Park in Norwalk.
Walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome to complete the challenge – a one mile hike. Or, pass on the challenge and enjoy a leisurely trail walk, great for people of all ages and people with disabilities. Strollers and bikers are welcome. Come as a family or form a company team and compete to raise funds for the NRVT. For each member of the team raising the most funds, Passage East Kennels will provide 2 free nights of boarding and a full service groom.
Plus, preserve your memories at the dog selfie station and enjoy food trucks and family-friendly activities. It’s a wonderful opportunity to make new friends – both hound and human.
