Event summary

Join us for the exciting Paw Prints PetFest & 5K on Saturday, October 4, 2025, in Eastampton Township, Burlington! This lively event features a timed off-road 5K course that winds through scenic wooded trails, perfect for both runners and walkers. Participants can choose to tackle the full 5K or opt for a shorter one-mile fun trail. A highlight of the event is the opportunity to bring your furry friends alongβ€”dogs are welcome on leashes, and you can even stroll with your cat in a stroller!

The day kicks off at 9:00 AM with check-in and same-day registration, followed by the 5K run/walk at 10:00 AM and the one-mile fun trail at 10:15 AM. Stick around for the medal ceremony at 11:30 AM and enjoy a variety of festival activities, including delicious food trucks, a deejay, the Tito's Beverage Garden, and a raffle basket tent. Proceeds from the event will support vital programs for shelter animals, making your participation a meaningful contribution to the community. Form a team with friends and family or register as an individual, and don't miss out on the fun!

Organiser's Description

The timed off road 5K course winds through a wooded trail and registrants have the option of either running or walking (map of 5K course [https://friendsofbcas.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/5K-course-map-at-Smithville-Park-certified-7-18-2017.pdf]). For those who prefer a shorter route, we have a one-mile fun trail option separate from the main 5K course. All race participants have the option to run/walk with their dog or cat in stroller. Dogs must be leashed. At the start of the race, all individual runners will go first followed by runners with dogs, then walkers with/without dog or cat in stroller.

Proceeds from this event will help fund advanced medical care for shelter animals, trap-neuter-vaccinate-return (TNVR), behavioral training, foster care, and our surrender diversion program. Everyone is encouraged to invite all animal lovers & race enthusiasts to participate!
