SUMMARY:Philadelphia Water Department Spokesdog Competition
DESCRIPTION:Does your pup have what it takes to be the next Spokesdog and represent Philly on the path to cleaner waterways?\n\n\nNo one likes dog poop left on the sidewalk…not people\, not pups\, and especially not our waterways! Dog waste left on the ground can wash into storm drains and eventually enters our local creeks and streams\, worsening water quality and negatively impacting aquatic plants and animals. That is exactly why the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) is seeking one special dog to represent the city as its 2025 Spokesdog! \nThe PWD Spokesdog will help to educate dog owners around the city about the importance of picking up after your pup to help improve water quality. The Spokesdog will represent the Philadelphia Water Department as its official doggy mascot through appearances at in-person events and educational campaigns. \nSpokesdog Competition Event Details \n\nDate: Sunday\, June 8\nTime: 2 – 5 PM\nLocation: The Boozy Mutt\, 2639 Poplar Street\, Philadelphia\, PA 19130\n\nHow will the Spokesdog be chosen? \nDuring the event\, dogs and their owners will be asked to participate in several stations\, including dog waste and tap water trivia\, a guessing game\, dog poop cornhole\, trick display and costume contest. Points will be awarded for each station. The dog with the most points at the end of the event will be crowned the 2025 Philadelphia Water Department Spokesdog. Prizes will be awarded to multiple dogs. \nWhat will the Spokesdog responsibilities be? \nThe chosen 2025 Philadelphia Water Department Spokesdog will be asked to participate in a one-time photo shoot to obtain images of your pup in the official Spokesdog cape. The winner will be invited to attend other local events hosted by the Philadelphia Water Department or Partnership for the Delaware Estuary during 2025. Compensation will be provided for attendance at each event.
