We know you’re the type of person who’s always pulling for pets. But now, we want you to actually PULL for pets!
What: Emancipet’s Pulling for Pets returns this year just in time for Haul-O-Ween! This one-day event features teams of ghosts and goblins (and pet lovers!) competing to pull a fire truck over 20 feet in the fastest time. But speed isn’t the only thing that counts in this tournament – awards will be given out for best costumes, top individual and team fundraisers, and a couple surprise categories!
Every $16 raised sponsors a pet in Emancipet’s mission to make veterinary care affordable and accessible for everyone.
No matter the outcome, people and their pets are the winners (plus some serious bragging rights that you pulled a fire truck)! Plus all attendees are invited to the official Haul-O-Ween after party, full of spooky surprises and sweet treats – stay tuned for updates!
Cost: Free to attend or $25 for Adults, $20 for Students if you want to have your own pulling team
When: Sunday, October 31, 2021. Registration begins at 10:30AM, with the Pull kicking off at 11AM
Where: Triple Bottom Brewery – 917 Spring Garden St., Philadelphia, PA 19123
Benefits: Every dollar raised goes to support Emancipet’s mission to make veterinary care afforable and accessible for everyone. Your life-changing support at this event goes directly to ensuring Austin pet owners have access to low-cost vet care. You can carry the weight, even if just for one day, for a person who feels like vet care is out of reach because of financial barriers.
What to wear: Comfortable athletic wear and closed toe shoes with tread. We recommend bringing gloves (although they aren’t required). Participants will be emailed instructions and tips before event day.
