Wild Half Race Series – Doggie Dash

September 10th, 2016 

The Wild Half race series is excited to unveil, our wildest race yet…The Doggie Dash!  This race is definitely something to WOOF about because for the first time ever man’s best friend and owner get to race together on the Wildwood boardwalk and compete for some PAWfect prizes.  Don’t have a dog but still want in on the canine fun?  Not a problem, registration is also open to runners and walkers flying solo. 

You might not be able to teach an old dog new tricks but you can certainly register them for a tail-wagging good time with the 7K, 5K, and 1 Mile race. All races will start and finish on Morey’s Adventure Pier at Spencer Avenue and in order to ensure all pooch’s safety the start of each race will take place in 15 minutes waves. Will your dog be the leader of the pack?  If so, then you better get to training because all dogs must remain on a leash at all times.  

Morey’s will be partnering with Team Foster, a non-profit organization whose primary mission is to pair service dogs with Tri-state area veterans suffering from combat-related disabilities including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury.  Morey’s will match every $5 doggie registration.  Funds raised will cover the cost of obtaining the dogs, the dogs’ care, and specialized training team, at no cost to our veterans.  

What do you get?

Complimentary tech shirt

Bark-tastic finisher medal (Dog’s will get their own special dog tags)

An after party on Adventure Pier with food (and dog treats), music, and beer
