For 33 years, SPCA Tampa Bay has hosted a Pet Walk to help support the nonprofit’s mission to run an open-admission shelter program that cares for more than 8,000 animals a year (SPCA is a “for-all” program that will not limit admission or refuse to take in a pet of any type or situation).

Two women—Maureen McFadden and Teressa Galloway—have participated every year, and animal lovers can join them this weekend at two different locations (North Straub Park: 400 Bayshore Dr. NE, St. Petersburg; Largo Central Park, 101 Central Park Dr., Largo).

Registration is free, and participants start to earn swag once they raise at least $50.
