Last Saturday started out like a beautiful fall day and then, of course, in the afternoon turned into a disaster. Fortunately, the participants for the annual Monster Mutt Walk started coming early and the event was able to give out awards prior to the rain.
The walk stayed in the Fourth Street Square because of the pending weather, but hopefully next year they will be able to have a much longer walk.
There were 33 contestants this year.
