KILLEEN, Texas (Sept. 7, 2023) – The City of Killeen’s Parks and Recreation Department is reminding dog owners to bring their best friends to our Bow Wow Luau this Saturday, Sept. 9 from 10a.m. to 1p.m. at the Family Aquatic Center. The event is a popular event for dogs of all ages to enjoy a splash in our park.
Activities at the event include a pooch pageant, costume contest, dress-up photo booth, pooch play and swim time, vendors, adoptions, and more.
This year in addition to the many activities for dogs, we will have donation bins at the event to benefit our animal shelters. Most items are welcome, but our Animal Services division is always in need of cat food (dry and wet), dog treats, toys (for both dogs and cats, puppies and kittens), bedding (towels and beds), and cleaning supplies (Clorox wipes and disinfectant spray).
This event is Killeen’s signature dog event and is free and open to the public. The Family Aquatic Center is located at 1800 E. Stan Schlueter Loop Road.
