Tails on the Trails

Lenexa Parks and Recreation, in conjunction with the Lenexa Animal Control, will sponsor a day to celebrate pets. Tails on the Trails combines the popular Children’s Pet Fair and the Annual Puppy Swims, so kids bring your pet to compete in the pet/owner look-a-like contest, or take Fido swimming. In addition, there will be a variety of pet vendors, exhibits and demonstrations.

For more information about this event call the Lenexa Community Center Office at [masked].
