Bark in the Park 2026 — Media PA

On October 11th, 2025, join the vibrant community at Rose Tree Park for a heartwarming dog-friendly 5K run and walk. This special event celebrates our furry friends while raising crucial funds to support animal welfare initiatives.
Participants can choose between an energizing 5K run starting promptly at 10am or a leisurely 1-mile stroll beginning at 11am, both offering the perfect opportunity to enjoy some quality time with your canine companion. In-person registration for runners starts early at 9am and walk participants have their chance from 10am.
The day is filled with activities designed to bring people together in support of a noble cause. After the event concludes, stick around for an afternoon packed with fun and engagement during our Fall Festival. Enjoy live music while browsing through local vendors' offerings or take part in dog contests that promise to be both entertaining and rewarding. For those looking to give back further, there will also be opportunities to participate in a vaccine & microchipping clinic.
Food trucks will line the park grounds providing delicious treats for all attendees, complemented by arts and crafts stalls where you can find unique gifts or simply admire local artists' work. The festival atmosphere is enhanced with raffle baskets brimming over with exciting prizes, ensuring there's something delightful to look forward to throughout the day.
This event not only celebrates our beloved pets but also supports a lifesaving center dedicated to improving animal welfare across the community.
