A reminder for dog owners that today you and your canine can have fun at the Jefferson Municipal Pool.

It is the annual Doggie Paddle event and fundraiser for the local Animal Protection and Education (APE) agency. Following the adult lap swim from 11:30am to 1pm, dog owners and their furry friends are invited to swim at the pool before it closes for the season. The entry fee is $1 per paw with all proceeds to go to APE and to support the services they provide.

There will also be a costume contest and each dog will receive a toy. No pre-registration is necessary for the event.
