THE Sunflower Fund will host its Sunflower Doggy Fun Walk in association with Village Veterinary Clinic on Saturday, 8 October at the Kloof Country Club.
Delicious food, a great-line up of entertainment and loads of fun are on the cards for the event and residents with their furry friends of all ages, colours, and fitness levels are welcome.
It’s not a family walk if the whole family can’t be there, so take your dogs along and enjoy this outdoor event at the Kloof Country Club, Cricket Field – 26 Victory Road, Kloof at 9.30am. Entrance costs R50, which includes dog and owner, and R30 per additional dog or person. Entrance includes a trendy 2016 Sunflower Tope (Tube of Hope), and the first 200 entries will also receive a free goodie bag so pre-registration is recommended. Registration will also take place on the day between 8am and 9.15am. Only socialised dogs on leashes will be allowed to enter and wastage bags will be provided for owners to pick up after their pets.
All proceeds will go to The Sunflower Fund whose aim is to educate, grow and maintain the South African Bone Marrow Registry. The more stem cell donors on the Registry, the more hope leukaemia patients have of finding their 1:100 000 donor match.
The South African National Blood Services will also be holding a mobile blood clinic at the event.
