an official DAS Fest USA bandana. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners of each
race will strut their way to the winner's podium for photos and a special prize
package.
The Bark & Bier Costume Contest takes place
on Saturday at 4:30 pm. The little dog who dons the best costume
wins prizes, and a beer token for their 21+ year old owner. Voting is by
audience approval, and noisemakers are prohibited on the grounds, so bring your
loudest friends to cheer you on.
On Saturday, following the costume contest, pups and owners are invited to lead our Grand March around the square. Saturday race participants welcome too!
to hang out with your Doxie or Corgi in a designated, huge
grassy area with tents and seating, and enjoy a stein and a schnitzel or two
while making new friends.
Every family who enters their dog(s) to race or participate in the costume contest will receive one parking pass, approximately 5 minutes walking distance to the field. NOTE: For safety reasons, there will be no VIP parking lot adjacent to the field this year.
Registration fees collected help DAS Fest USA
offset expenses associated with the races. Proceeds from DAS Fest USA go to charity, supporting over 45 nonprofit agencies through the United Way of Walworth
County. Your kindness in covering the small credit card fee upon checkout
