The Orinda Park and Recreation Foundation, raising money for park and recreational activities in Orinda since 1975, is holding its second annual Doggone Fun Fest from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 5 at the Orinda Center Community Park. The free event was originally scheduled in October, but had to be rescheduled owing to poor air quality caused by the North Bay fires. The fun fest will feature demonstrations in dog obedience and agility plus a demonstration by the sheriff's canine unit. Contests will feature best in obedience, best trick and the best human/canine duo costume.
A raffle will be held to help raise money for park and recreational needs in the community. Raffle prizes will include gift certificates from Pet Express, a gift certificate from Orinda Grooming (limited to dogs of less than 60 pounds), a gift basket full of fun pet items and a gift certificate for either a free night of overnight care (minimum 7 nights) or 20 percent off dog walking (for one dog) for up to two walks, and a book by local author Ginger Wadsworth, "Poop Detectives." Other prizes will include $50 gift certificates from Wild Magnolia Restaurant, The 4th Bore Restaurant, and a gift certificate from Loard's Ice Cream for a double scoop cone once a month for a year.
Peet's Coffee and Tea will be providing cool drinks for everyone and Loard's will be in attendance with their mobile ice cream unit.
