Lancerlot Sports Complex proudly announces the “The Oakey’s Dog Days of Summer” event. A
fun-filled event for your four-legged friend to “cool off” this extremely hot summer!
Lancerlot Sports Complex (aka “The Lot”) welcomes back for our fourth year “The Oakey’s (Pet Funeral Home &
Crematory) Dog Days of Summer” event which will take place on Saturday, August 19th from 1:00pm – 4:00pm.
This will be a free community event open to the public, especially all those with dogs, or those who are thinking
about adopting a dog.
As in years past, we will host a dog adopt-a-thon in conjunction with local adoption agencies. In addition
to the adopt-a-thon, LSC will openly provide to the general public the coolest activities for
pooches. They will turn their full regulation sized ice rink into a cool dog park and open their outdoor swimming
pool for dogs and their owners only. Over 20 animal vendors will be on-site providing free services, offering door
prizes and more! What better way to let your best friend beat the extreme heat during these dog days of
summer by chilling out at coolest place around!
“It’s been great hosting and watching this wonderful event grow over the years. It’s really such a fun and
cool event for all dogs and their owners to attend,” said Lancerlot Sports Complex General Manager, Joe
Miller. “We hope that many dogs find a loving family and a new home during the adopt-a-thon. Our goal for
this event is to offer something different and unique for all dogs and owners alike across Virginia’s Blue
Ridge.”
We would like to thank their title sponsor, Oakey’s Pet Funeral & Crematory, and
their co-sponsors, Town of Vinton, Pretty Paws Dog & Cat Grooming, Vinton Veterinary and Pet Vet
Roanoke for their support of the event.
