The kickoff event, sponsored by YoLo, will begin with a 1-mile fun walk/dog parade, followed by remarks from Memphis Mayor A C Wharton, Overton Park Conservancy’s Tina Sullivan and George Cates, and Hollywood Feed president Shawn McGhee. After a “leash-cutting,” participants and their dogs will be welcomed into a celebration at the new dog park, featuring several local bands, food, free yogurt from YoLo, contests, prizes and more.
