So it is official! The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania awarded the Indiana County Tourist Bureau a grant established by Governor Josh Shapiro to help spotlight local areas and communities as part of his "PA Great American Getaway" which is under visitPA.
Partners supporting the program include Mutts of Merit, LLC., Indiana County Parks & Trails, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, IRMC, Aging Services, Inc., and WalkWorks in Indiana County.
These entities all see the value Indiana County has to offer for residents and visitors alike who own dogs! Our goal is to promote destinations and activities within the county that are pet friendly. We want owners and dogs to enjoy time together, being active, and seeing the beauty Indiana County has to offer throughout each region.
"Indiana County's Canine Adventure" is a reoccurring event to entice travel and movement throughout the County. Participation requires you to capture a photograph of your dog at a minimum of 30 highlighted locations. A list of businesses with outdoor dining facilities, landmarks, infrastructure, parks, and trails will be identified. You will be required to capture at least 2 of the 4 seasons in your pictures.
To apply, you must register through yhe Indiana County Tourist Bureau. The process will start the beginning of June. Upon registration, you will receive a Hoodie with matching bandana for you and your pup.
All contestants who submit the photograph portfolio will be entered to win a drawing that consists of hotel vouchers, restaurants gift cards/vouchers, and some free run time Mutts of Merit in Motion.
I will let you all know as soon as entries begin. Guys, this is going to be fun. Let us get the stink blown off ourselves and our dogs as we head out for our outdoor adventures and see Indiana County from our dog's perspective. Let us get healthy together!
