It’s almost time for dog lovers in Cape Town to enjoy a day in ‘pawradise’ as Woefie Wandel 2024 approaches to support the Cape of Good Hope SPCA! From walks with fellow dog lovers to an art station just for pooches, food stalls and even pet-friendly photo booths, here’s what’s on the cards:
Green Point, South Africa (20 October 2024) — If a day spent out at a park surrounded by dogs, greenery and fellow dog lovers is your idea of paradise (or should we say, pawradise), then the 2024 Woefie Wandel might just be the next thing you add to your social calendar with immediate effect.
On the one paw, the Woefie Wandel is a big fundraising opportunity for the Cape of Good Hope SPCA whose tireless work for the betterment of Cape animals makes a massive difference every week. On the other, it’s a wagging and wonderful way to connect with animal lovers while letting your dog enjoy a range of pooch-friendly activities!
On the cards for the day set to be hosted at the ever-tranquil Green Point Park are:
- Walkies—two walks, one 1.2km and a 1.9km
- Food Stalls—because what’s a walk without a treat to look forward to?
- Art for Pooches—Yes, your dog has the go-ahead to unleash its inner Pawcasso!
- A pet-friendly Photobooth
- Contests: There will be contests for the Best lookalike dog, the happiest dog and more
- A Pet Pop-up Shop
- A Mobile Clinic—Get those rabies vaccinations and microchipping out of the way on the day!
- A Mini Funfair—So that your human kids can also let their hair down
Last year, Woefie Wandel helped the Cape of Good Hope SPCA raise R50,000 thanks to 600 participants and the many, many four-legged friends present. And if those numbers are anything to go by, hopes are higher than your dog’s leap to catch a frisbee that 2024 will have a marvellous impact.
