3rd Annual Paws at the Park

The City of Gretna announces their third annual Paws at the Park, located at the Gretna Crossing Park sponsored by United Republic Bank.

Bring your pup and join us at the Dog Park, located at 12505 S. 208th Ave., Gretna, NE, for a tail-wagging good time.

FREE and open to the public!
Enjoy vendors, dog games, and plenty of fun for dogs of all sizes and ages. The vendors with games will be located in the small dog park. The large dog park will be open for regular off-leash play. Dogs must be leashed in the vendor areas and ALL DOGS MUST HAVE UPDATED VACCINES!

Be sure to stop by the City tent and enter our giveaway for a chance to win paw-some doggy baskets.
