Discount Drug Mart Named Title Sponsor for Spooky Pooch Parade

LakewoodAlive proudly announces Discount Drug Mart as the Title Sponsor for the 12th Annual Spooky Pooch Parade. Costumed canines will take center stage on Saturday, October 19, when this popular canine event returns to Dowtown Lakewood from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

The Spooky Pooch Parade consists of a festival within Kauffman Park (15450 Detroit Avenue), a parade through Lakewood’s downtown business district on Detroit Avenue and an awards presentation. This Halloween tradition is a favorite Northeast Ohio dog lovers and their families. The Spooky Pooch Parade is a one-of-a-kind community festival, providing a tail-wagging good time for canine and human guests alike. Last year’s Spooky Pooch Parade drew more than 350 canines and an estimated crowd of 3,000 people.

Discount Drug Mart, an Ohio-based, full-service drug store, has served Northeast Ohio for five decades, priding itself on superior customer service, low prices and convenient one-stop shopping. This longtime local company has two locations in Lakewood (13123 Detroit Avenue and 15412 Detroit Avenue), the latter of which is located just south of Kauffman Park, the site of the Spooky Pooch Parade.

“We are excited to have Discount Drug Mart serve as the Title Sponsor of our Spooky Pooch Parade for a fifth consecutive year,” said Ian Andrews, LakewoodAlive’s Executive Director. “Discount Drug Mart represents a tremendous partner to LakewoodAlive and we appreciate the many valuable contributions this local company continues to make within the Lakewood community.”
