The American Cancer Society Bark For Life fundraising event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on June 22 at Edith Moulton Park in Kirkland.

The event honors the life-long contributions of Canine Caregivers. It presents an opportunity for people to be empowered through their canine companion partnerships and to contribute to cancer cures through the mission of the American Cancer Society.

During the event families and their dogs come together for a few hours during the day and complete a one mile walk to honor the care giving qualities of their canine “Best Friends” and cancer survivors.

The event includes doggie games, top dog and dress up contests, team and community fundraising and food.

There will also be special dog guest demonstrations by groups such as therapy, police or rescue dogs.

Edith Moulton Park is located at 13710 108th Ave NE in Kirkland.
