THIRD ANNUAL NORTHERN VIRGINIA PRIDE FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES "Paw Pride Park" -- CALLS FOR SPONSORS, DONATIONS, AND VENDORS FOR PET BUSINESSES
(McLean, VA) August 25, 2016 – Northern VA Pride (NOVA Pride) is excited to announce the third annual Northern Virginia Pride Festival will feature PAW PRIDE PARK- a loving space for our four-legged friends, at the Bull Run Special Events Center in Centreville, Virginia on Saturday, October 1, 2016.
We are seeking sponsors for this large off-leash dog park as well as donations to make sure our four-legged friends are provided with a clean and safe environment. We are in need of fencing, tents for shade, pooper scoopers, trash cans, poop bags, bag stands, and water dishes. We are also calling on donations for leashes, collars, towels, food, water dishes, pet beds, food and more for our other 501c3 rescue friends (NOVA Pride gives back to the community as well, so all donations will be divided out to any rescues that participate in the festival). We also want to provide health and wellness opportunities for our four-legged friends by having vaccinations available and nutrition education surrounding the play area.
This is also a great vendor opportunity for any business specializing in animals due to the thousands of pet owners that attend the festival each year. If you interested, please send all inquiries to sponsor@novapride.org or vendor@novapride.org.
More information is forthcoming, and will be available via the following outlets:
