Holiday Pack Party at The Yard
MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR THE HOLIDAY PACK PARTY AT THE YARD! 
We’re getting a little festive, a little competitive, and probably a little ridiculous. Join us for an afternoon of holiday fun with your favorite four-legged friends!
DECEMBER 19 | STARTING AT 3 PM
The Yard | 1432 5th Avenue, Columbus, GA
FREE ADMISSION! FOR HUMANS & DOGS
A quick heads-up: Admission is free, but all dogs must be registered through the Bark Membership app and meet all Yard membership requirements before entering the park. Reminder, all dogs must be people & dog friendly and OFF LEASH in the park.
HERE’S WHAT’S HAPPENING:
UGLY SWEATER CONTEST | 5 PM
Registration opens at 4 PM. It’s time to dig out those questionable Christmas sweaters! Dogs and humans can enter for a chance to win in several categories, including Ugliest Sweater, Best Dressed Duo, and Most Over-the-Top Holiday Outfit. Matching outfits are absolutely encouraged.
DOG TOY SECRET SANTA | REGISTRATION OPENS AT 3 PM
Your pup can get in on the gift-giving, too! Sign up at the event starting at 3 PM to participate in our optional Secret Santa exchange. Each participating dog should bring one new, wrapped dog toy valued between $10 and $15. The gift exchange will begin at 6:15 PM.
Drop your wrapped Secret Santa gift off at the registration table when you arrive. Once your pup gets their present, be sure to tuck it safely away in your car until you head home! We all know some of our naughtier residents have sticky paws, and we’d hate for your carefully chosen gift to become an early Christmas present for someone else’s pup. 
HOLIDAY PHOTO STATION
Stop by our festive photo setup and capture a holiday picture with your pup. Consider this your annual excuse to make your dog pose for another picture.
CHRISTMAS MARKET | 3–7 PM
Shop local vendors and find something special for the dogs and humans on your holiday list.
HOLIDAY SPECIALS AT THE AIRSTREAM | 3–10 PM
We’ll have seasonal cocktails, mocktails, coffee and matcha specials, plus a little something for the pups.
GIVE A LITTLE BACK
We’re collecting donations for Paws Humane Society! Bring a new dog toy or other requested supplies to help make the holidays a little brighter for pets in need.
MORE THAN JUST A HOLIDAY PARTY
The Holiday Pack Party is a chance to celebrate the season with our Columbus community, but it’s also an opportunity to make a difference. Proceeds from donations and Airstream sales during the event will directly support the mission of Paws Humane Society and the animals and families who count on us.
Bring your ugliest sweater, round up your favorite people, and let your dog enjoy a little holiday mischief. We can’t wait to celebrate with our Yard pack!
The Holiday Pack Party | Only at The Yard.
