Woof Woof Walk

Come dressed in your favorite halloween costume and enjoy a beautiful walk at Pierce County Parks and Recreation's first ever Woof Woof Walk on Saturday, October 24th at Spanaway Park in the Parkland/Spanaway vicinity.

Woof Woof Walk Join the Pierce County K-9 for either the 1.5 mile or 3 mile route. Both routes are on paved trails that provide
a flat, easy walk suitable for families and people of all abilities.

Prizes will be awarded in the canine costume contest.
Plus registered participants will be entered into our
'ruffle drawing.'

The Woof Woof Walk takes you on the paved trails at Spanaway Park. As you enjoy the Walk take a look and enjoy the recent and new park improvements. The picnic shelters have been renovated, bathrooms updated, and the new play equipment added is fun for kids of all ages.
