Barks & Boos! Fall Festival & Fundraiser

Barks & Boos! Play | Walk | Run | Hike Fall festival & Fundraiser

Saturday, October 17th | 11am–2pm | Baltimore Humane Society (1601 Nicodemus Road, Reisterstown, MD) Rain date: Saturday, October 31

Right now, Baltimore Humane Society is caring for more animals than ever who need safety, healing, and a place to call home. This October, you can help us help them — all while having the best fall day of your year.

Join us for our First Annual Barks & Boos!, a play, walk, run, and hike fundraiser right on our grounds. Bring your leashed, well-behaved pup — or come solo. Everyone’s invited.

Every registration goes straight to medical care, food, and shelter for animals with nowhere else to turn.

Fundraise With Us — And Get In Free

Registering is just the start. The real impact happens when you rally your community behind you — and it’s easier (and more rewarding) than you think.

We’re proud to offer peer-to-peer fundraising for every Barks & Boos! participant. Once you register, you’ll get your own personal (or team) fundraising page to share with friends, family, and coworkers — no experience necessary. It takes minutes to set up, and every dollar goes directly toward feeding, sheltering, and healing the 1,000+ animals who come through our doors each year.

Here’s why it matters:

• Your reach becomes our reach. A single fundraising page shared across social media, email, and text can introduce Baltimore Humane Society to dozens of new supporters who might never have found us otherwise.
• Small goals, big outcomes. A $100 fundraising goal doesn’t just cover your registration fee — it can cover a full week of food for a shelter dog.
• Fundraise your way in for free:
  • Individuals who raise $100 get free admission
  • Kids 12 and under who raise $50 get free admission
• Team up for more impact. Register as an individual or build a team with friends, family, or coworkers, and watch your combined impact grow as your page is shared further.

Every page, every share, and every donation adds up to real care for real animals — long after the last dog crosses the finish line.
