Kingsport Aquatic Center Drool Party
September 7 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
The Kingsport Aquatic Center is once again hosting a two-day Drool Party later this summer for all our furry friends, offering dogs of all breeds and sizes a chance to run, play and socialize in the outdoor water park.
And to top things off, the KAC is offering a new, special session for just small dogs (weighing 25 pounds or less).
The Drool Party will take place from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on September 6 and from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on September 7. The small dog session will take place from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on September 7. This will be the final swim of the season before the outdoor facility is “winterized” by the staff.
Admission is $5 per dog and free to owners. Limit two dogs per person, and the dogs’ handler must be over 18 and bring leashes with them.
Your dogs must be up to date on all vaccines, including Parvo, Distemper and Rabies. Bordetella is highly recommended, but not required for this event. Vaccination records are required for entry to the Drool Party.
Bark Avenue and Toadally Pets are expected to be onsite during the event. Dog-related vendors (groomers, boarding, treats) and food trucks interested in setting up at the Drool Party, should contact Madison Gump at madisongump@kingsporttn.gov for more information.
