DAY OF THE DOG

​

Interested in being a sponsor for the 2020 Day of the Dog? 

 

See the information below, or download the vendor and sponsor packet HERE

 

Vendors and services have ample exposure to potential customers in an energetic and festive setting. Those who joined us last year enjoyed sharing the day with many local vendors, over 1,000 people and their dogs, a raffle, adoptions from local rescue groups, craft beers from local brewing companies and a variety of activities, games and demonstrations for dogs and their families. 

​

See below for the registration rates and sponsor packages for Day of the Dog. To receive “early dog” discounts, vendors must sign up and pay by September 4. To be included in any advertising (included in levels 2 and above), vendors must sign up by October 2. The deadline for inclusion in the festival is October 23.  All completed forms can be emailed to skirspel@congressionalcemetery.org. 

Food Trucks (Limit 6)

 

Interested in bringing your food truck to Day of the Dog? Food truck registration is $75 and allows you to bring your truck inside the cemetery. Food trucks are centrally located around the Chapel.
