Pawz Too Run was created in 2011 by Joanna Copio who was in 8th grade at the time. This year will be the fourth year for Pawz Too Run on April 12th, 2014. All profit is donated to Friends of the Animals who have plans to build a state-of-the-art sanctuary/adoption center in Mooresville, NC. Here is the link:

The race is a 5K which will begin at 8:30 a.m. in Davidson, NC, on the Town Green. Then the race is followed by a Dog walk (about 2.5 miles) which will begin at 9:00 a.m. Participants may run with their dog in the 5K. Awards are given out for both the 5K and Dog Walk.
