Bark in the Park Coming to Arrocha Ballpark on May 1

April 25, 2011

LAWRENCE, Kan. –

Kansas softball will hold its annual Bark in the Park event in conjunction with the Lawrence Humane Society (LHS) when the Jayhawks host Texas A&M on Sunday, May 1 at noon. Fans are permitted to bring their dogs to the game with a donation to LHS.

Donations can be either monetary or an item from the Humane Society’s wish list. The wish list includes bleach, paper towels, blankets, sheets and Blue Dawn dish detergent. Each four-legged friend visiting Arrocha Ballpark must be on a leash and will receive a free treat. Water will be made available.

Dogs aren’t the only ones getting freebies during this popular promotion as fans can get a hold of KU softball trading cards and then stick around after the game for autographs from the team.
