Enticing smells, magical holiday lights, and merriment with friends are just a few things to look forward to at the 2nd Annual Paws in the Park at the Tanglewood Festival of Lights in Clemmons.

Come take a walk in the park on Tuesday, Nov. 10 with friends or your favorite four-pawed friend.

Provide second chances for abandoned animals while enjoying a fun-filled evening of strolling through the magical holiday light display, listening to live music, enjoying the fabulous food truck rodeo, and getting an early start on holiday shopping.

A 2014 Paws in the Park attendee said last year’s event was

“A truly magical evening….folks and their faithful dogs, a beautiful walk through the Christmas lights of Tanglewood Park, friendly faces, aromas wafting thru the air from the food trucks, holiday shopping, musicians and carolers all on a crisp clear fall evening. The event was beautifully organized and orchestrated. Paws in the Park will be new holiday tradition for my family.”

Buy a ticket to join in the fun and help save lives.

Registration, shopping, and dining open at 4:30 p.m. Walkers are welcome to enjoy the light display from 6-9 p.m. Proceeds from this event will help rescue, care for, and place abandoned dogs and cats into loving homes.
