Yes! We love furry family members. As we say, we are dog-encouraged! A few things to keep in mind:Dogs should be well-behaved in public/crowds and always on a leash. Dogs that get anxious around crowds, don't like loud music, don't like kids petting them, or tend to get snippy with other dogs wanting to sniff hello probably should sit this one out.Many dress their pups in the spirit of pink... just an FYI.Most importantly: TAKE PHOTOS and tag us! @thebreastcancercollectiveUse hashtags:#WalkToBustCancerOh, and let's not forget the fine print – all National Park rules must be followed: https://www.nps.gov/gwmp/planyourvisit/forthunt.htm

There is ample parking around the walk site. And, yes, getting there early will get you closer to the start/finish line. We'll have staff, cones, and signs helping you know where to go.Most importantly when arriving.Please be observant and follow the instructions of our parking attendants. They are volunteering to make sure everyone has a good experience.FYI - There are a limited number of handicapped parking spots. If you require one, please tell one of our parking attendants as you enter the park.Depending on our turnout, parking may extend around the loop quite a bit –  meaning walking a few yards (plus) to Registration/Starting Line area and back may be part of your arrival. Plan your arrival accordingly. We usually have a few golf carts on hand to help shuttle those that may need assistance.Because it will be an October morning, consider wearing water resistant shoes in case you need to cut through the grass either due to parking or exploring the park. The grass at 8:30am will likely be damp!FYI: Check-In/the Starting Line are both closest to picnic area A-001.Here is a link to recreation site that has an interactive map to locate A-001, parking options, and see the Loop we'll be walking: https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/232494
