EVENT DESCRIPTION:
This is the Annual PAWS 4K Walk.

Support PAWS Chicago’s mission to build a No Kill city by running or walking for homeless animals. Bring the whole family to participate in the child and pet-friendly walk, or compete against the clock in the 8K Run.

This annual event is extremely important to raising funds for PAWS Chicago’s life-saving programs.

PAWS Chicago (Pets Are Worth Saving) is the city’s largest No Kill humane organization. Through a solution based approach to animal welfare, PAWS Chicago has placed Chicago on track to become a No Kill city where pets are no longer destroyed because they are homeless. Since PAWS Chicago’s founding in 1997, the number of homeless pets euthanized per year has dropped from 42,561 to 19,288 – more than a 50 percent decrease!

Event Day Registration
Adults: $40
Children (12 and under): $30

Dogs: Free!

Dogs are welcome to join their families to participate in the 4K walk!

Rain or shine, the 8K Run and 4K Walk will begin at 9 a.m. at Montrose Harbor.

The run and walk will take place along Chicago’s beautiful Lake Michigan.

If your pet cannot join you, bring a photo of him or her and a PAWS Chicago volunteer will make a button for you to wear.

All participants will receive a Run for Their Lives t-shirt and enjoy complimentary food, beverages and other freebies at booths hosted by event sponsors.

Prizes will be awarded to three winners of the Howl-o-ween costume contest, the annual dog dress-up competition!

The Canine Carnival will include an agility course hosted by K-9 University, complimentary pet massages, an on-site animal communicator and more!

TIME: Noon
LOCATION: Meet outside the Wrightwood Tap 1059 W Wrightwood Ave and we'll walk over to the festival
PARKING: Street parking, (you only need a visitor parking pass after 6pm)
Please Note: This is a leashed walking event and it may be very crowded, which is why I think we should go early.

DESCRIPTION:
One of the city's largest and most popular summer celebrations, the Taste of Lincoln Avenue will be celebrating its 26th year in 2009.

The iconic event takes place over six city blocks on a major artery in the heart of Lincoln Park where high home values meet the DePaul University population. The area is the home of Chicago's original club scene and many of Chicago's oldest and favorite restaurants.

Taste of Lincoln Avenue began as a small neighborhood fundraiser and has grown to become the second largest street festival in the region. The event features 350 vendors and more than 40 music acts on five stages. Every music genre is represented: from blues and country to rock and folk. The event draws an upscale, educated audience of white collar professionals, singles and families.

There's also a one-block kids' area with entertainment, pony rides, a petting zoo and much more!
