Join in the "fun-raising" for the homeless pets at Stafford Animal Shelter in Livingston, Montana with our annual "Barks & Brews"! This evening 5K Fun Run course will wind through the historic streets of Livingston starting downtown at The Owl Lounge at 6:30pm. At the finish line, every paid participant can enjoy an ice-cold beer from the Owl Lounge and a burger and chips from Yellowstone Bank! Event t-shirts will be provided to all paid runners from sponsor Small Dog Realty. The Spur Line will be providing raffle prizes. If you don't want to run in the 5K, non-participants can join in the refreshments & food for $15.00. And the best part is....100% of the proceeds from the night go to help Stafford's homeless pets!
