KWWSPCA April events


The KWWSPCA has planned three fundraising events in April that you might like to support. The proceeds from these events will go towards the animals in the care of the KWWSPCA.
The Easter Egg Hunt and Dog Walk is Good Friday, 18 April, at Punchestown Racecourse and the Dog Walk will start at 3pm. The meeting point is just inside the main entrance to the Racecourse. Everyone is welcome; there is plenty of free parking and entry is free, although donations are welcome. There will be Easter eggs for the children, face painting, treats for the dogs and a raffle. A lot of rescue dogs, past and present, will be attending and going on the walk. It is a fun afternoon for everyone. The walk is on fairly level, solid ground and lasts about an hour. All dogs must be kept on leads. 
The Spring Fair and PopUp Shop on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 April will be held in Newbridge Town Hall this year. There will be a large selection of items on sale at very reasonable prices, most of which have been donated by loyal supporters.  There will be ladies’ clothes and accessories as well as some men’s and children’s clothes, jewellery, books, fine china, glassware, small items of furniture, household items, cakes and much more. Entry is free and there is plenty of parking in the car park behind the Town Hall. Light refreshments will be available.  
In conjunction with Punchestown Racecourse, the traditional ‘Walking Sunday’ before the Punchestown Racing Festival will take place on Sunday, 27 April, from 2pm–4pm. This gives everyone a chance to have a look at the Racecourse and its amenities before the Festival begins on Tuesday 29 April. Dogs are very welcome if they are on leads. The walk is on fairly level, solid ground and takes about an hour. There will be a coffee stall, an ice-cream stall and music at the end of the walk, as well as treats for dogs, a raffle and a KWWSPCA information stall.
