About the Pups for Parkinson’s event:

DOGS CAN BE A FUNDRAISER’S BEST FRIEND Come join us as we put our “best paws forward” to raise money to cure Parkinson’s disease. At the PUPS for Parkinson’s Dog Walk our canine best friends can actually help cure Parkinson’s Disease, a debilitating neurological disorder that affects 1 ½ million Americans. The Parkinson’s Dog Walk features a comfortable one-mile walk through a Park, obedience demonstrations, an agility course, and an Ask the Veterinarian table. Prizes will be awarded to top fundraisers, and a small portion of our net proceeds will be donated to our participating not-for-profit animal shelters. Bring you canine pal and come walk with us to support the search for a cure. Donations to the PUPS for Parkinson’s walk will help fund cutting edge research. A small portion of the net proceeds will also be donated to our participating animal shelters.

About EastofNYC.com:

EastofNYC.com was formed in late 2005 by a group of city dwellers that suddenly found themselves transplanted to Long Island and the quiet surroundings of suburbia. Rather than looking for something to do, they decided to start up an online guide for everyone who at some time or another has been looking for a place to eat, somewhere to go, a hotel to put up their in-laws, or a location to just simply enjoy their time. Their goal is to keep you informed of all of the great restaurants, shops, local finds and events that this large island has to offer all the way from the westernmost point of Brooklyn to the eastern end of Montauk.
