Asbury Bark and GFNJ are having a Halloween Parade, followed by a Meet & Greet at Asbury Bark.

All dogs are invited to march whether they're registered or not; however, only registered dogs will be eligible for prizes. A donation of $2.00 is suggested at registration; however, not required.
The Dog Parade will begin at 4:00pm at Asbury Bark (611 Cookman Avenue). The parade route itself will only be around Cookman and the 2 adjoining streets (Mattison and Bond).
The categories for prizes are Best Dressed, Best Costume, and Most Creative. Prizes will be provided by Asbury Bark to the winning dog in each category.
Costumes should be selected with the weather conditions and comfort of the dogs at the highest consideration.
Prizes will be given out to all registered dogs.
Afterward, we are invited back to Asbury Bark with the dogs to give information on GFNJ, greyhounds in general, distribute informational material, and take donations.
Since Asbury Bark's space is limited, we'd like to determine what volunteers would be interested in bringing their dogs to the store for the Meet and Greet. If you can attend, please contact Jeremy Griffin or Larry Bertorelli at oceanoj@gmail.com or larrybertorelli@gmail.com
