One of the very best parts of our annual Chili Cook Off & Fall Festival (coming up on October 17th from 5-9 pm at DCHS & the CAC) is the PET COSTUME CONTEST!

Each year we see the cutest (and most creative) pet costumes, and our photos always end up featuring the pets a LOT. This year the Pet Costume Contest begins at 8 pm, but be sure to sign up at the Costume Contest Booth the minute you arrive. This year, local Pet Bakery and Groomer, WOOF GANG BAKERY & GROOMING - ASHLEY PARK is generously supplying a prize basket for the pet with the best costume! WOOF GANG is a perfect fit to sponsor the pet costume prize, as their mission is to deliver happiness and wellbeing to both pets and their owners. Each store is a welcoming, pet-focused experience that reflects the local community.
