The Golden Games

To close the day, we will host the:

Sporty Paws Best Dressed Showcase

  • Athletes, team mascots, sports fans & tailgaters, sports commentators, soccer balls or sport equipment, country colours & jerseys, Olympic-inspired outfits

There will be prizes for the following categories:

  • Most convincing athlete
  • Best tailgating/fan outfit
  • Gold medal goofball (most likely to retrieve the wrong ball)

Start planning your Golden’s sporty outfit while jerseys and World Cup gear are everywhere this summer!
