Pamper your pooch at the hottest pool party in Freeport

If your four-legged companion has a penchant for poolside adventures, mark your calendars for the ultimate canine splash-fest: the Puppy Pool Party, happening on Saturday, September 9, in Freeport. Benefiting Bobbi & the Strays, this event promises a tail-wagging good time for dogs of all shapes and sizes.

Divided into two delightful sessions, the fun kicks off at noon for our daintier doggy friends weighing in at 25 pounds or less. Then, from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m., it's the turn of the medium-sized pups, those weighing between 25 and 50 pounds. To secure your spot in either session, there's a nominal fee of $10 per dog. Please note, for the sake of safety and space, our pool is off-limits to dogs tipping the scales at over 50 pounds.

The Puppy Pool Party extravaganza unfolds at the Freeport Recreation Center, located at 130 E. Merrick Rd. To ensure a splash-tastic time for everyone, pre-registration is essential. Call 516-771-4189 or email ecomeford@freeportny.gov to secure your spot. And don't forget to bring along your furry friend's up-to-date vaccination records, a must for all attending pups.

But the fun doesn't stop at the water's edge. Even if you're not bringing your furry friend for a dip, it's a fantastic day to visit because, starting at 8 a.m. on September 9, 2023, Freeport residents can register for a range of exciting fall courses. Whether you're into swimming, basketball, Back to Broadway, fencing, or yoga, there's something for everyone. For the full course catalog, head to the Village website at freeportny.gov/115/Recreation-Center or simply call 516-377-2314.
