Drool in the Pool
The Central Nebraska Humane Society hosts an annual Drool in the Pool event each August that gives local dogs the chance to enjoy the water one last time before the pools close for the season. From 7:30 pm to 9 pm on a Sunday, head over to Island Oasis for a night of swimming!
Your dog will enjoy meeting new friends, splashing around, and swimming. To keep everyone safe, humans are not allowed to swim in the pool with their pooches, but they can help their dog into the water up to knee deep.
Check-in starts at 7:15 pm and admission is $10 per dog. Only one dog is allowed per adult.

While adults try to win door and raffle prizes, kids can enjoy the bouncy house and face painting station. Past raffle prizes have included tickets to a Husker football game and a flat-screen TV. Make a donation to Kearney Area Animal Shelter and your dog can have a nice bath during the event!
