Menlo Park Police Foundation Hosting 'Paws For Paws'

MENLO PARK-ATHERTON, CA - From the City of Menlo Park: The Menlo Park Police Foundation invites all dogs (and their humans) to attend the third annual Paws for Paws Walk. The event will be held from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 25 at Burgess Park. The event features a walk, K-9 demonstrations, raffles, vendors, food trucks and much more!

Menlo Park Police Chief David Bertini, who will be the Master of Ceremonies at the event, shared, “Paws for Paws has become a great yearly event, where the community and the police department can come together in their appreciation and love for our furry friends! It is also an opportunity to support the great work that law enforcement does every day.”

Proceeds help support the Menlo Park Police Department’s K-9 Program, scholarships that support victims of crime and programs that fund youth-related community sports.

A special raffle item this year is limo transportation to San Francisco then a ride in a San Francisco Fire boat. This item was donated by the WL Butler Family and the San Francisco Fire Department.

The Paws for Paws Walk promises to be a day of fun activities, a chance to meet new friends and win cool prizes, and a great way to support your community. You definitely won’t want to miss this! There is no charge to attend the event, only to participate in the walk and raffles.

Tickets are available at Eventbrite. More information can be seen on Facebook or Instagram.
