Local dogs will soon get their turn to enjoy the public pool.
The annual Pooch Plunge will take place Sept. 4 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Outdoor Aquatic Center, 727 Kentucky St., according to a city news release. The event allows dogs to play in the pool before it is drained for the season.
To participate, dogs must have proof of current vaccinations the day of the event and must remain under their owners’ control at all times, the release said.
The fee for the event is $5 per dog. Registration will be available at the door, but owners may also preregister on the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department’s website or at any any Parks and Rec building. There is no charge for spectators.
The last day of normal operations for the Outdoor Aquatic Center will be Sept. 3, according to the city’s website. Hours will be 1-8 p.m.
