Reminder: The Second Annual Puppy Pool Party is today at the Oak Ridge Outdoor Municipal Swimming Pool on Providence Road today (Saturday, August 19).

The Puppy Pool Party is hosted by the Oak Ridge Recreation and Parks Department. It’s scheduled from 5 to 7 p.m. today.

The last day for public swimming was yesterday (Friday, August 18).

“This is the second year for the puppy pool party, an event which marks the end of the summer swimming season at the outdoor pool,” a City of Oak Ridge press release said. “Owners may only wade in water up to knee deep and must clean up after their pet. Children are not allowed in the pool during the event.”

What: Second Annual Puppy Pool Party

When: Saturday, August 19, from 5 p.m.-7 p.m.

Where: Outdoor Municipal Swimming Pool, 172 Providence Road, Oak Ridge

All dogs must be non-aggressive and on leashes, the press release said. Owners must also have proof of current vaccinations. Entrance fees are $3 per dog, or each owner may bring a donation of canned or dry dog food to support the Oak Ridge Animal Shelter.

For more information and a full list of rules, call the Oak Ridge Recreation and Parks Department at (865) 425-3450 or contact Aquatics Manager Vonda Wooten by email at vwooten@oakridgetn.gov.

More information will be added as it becomes available.
