Every dog has its day… in Schertz, that day was September 10! The annual Paws in the Pool event always makes a splash among the four-legged community members. Prior to Pickrell Park Pool closing down for the summer season, local pups and their owners are allowed a special day to enjoy the facility just to themselves. Participants pre-registered for one of two 90-minute time slots and a $3 entry fee which allowed them full reign to doggypaddle away the last of the dog days of summer. Schertz Parks and Recreation and the Schertz Family YMCA host this special pool party for pups of all breeds and sizes to dip their paws in. From fetching and diving off the deep end to wading in the kiddie pool, these pups made summer memories that will last fur-ever!

Join Schertz Parks & Recreation and members of the San Antonio Astronomical Society for an evening under the stars Saturday, November 26. The Star Party will be held at Crescent Bend Nature Park, 12805 Schaefer Rd, 78108. Pre-register for the FREE event at Schertz.com. Chairs and blankets welcome.
