RANGELEY — The fifth annual “Best Dog on Earth Day” event, a celebration of dogs and Earth Day, will be held from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, April 24.
The Rangeley Lakes Chamber of Commerce and Rangeley Health and Wellness are running the outdoor event. Masks are required at the starting and ending points, and participants are asked to socially distance throughout the event. They are encouraged to bring refillable water containers to reduce waste. Water to refill containers will be provided.
Participants can register for the fun walk/run starting at 9:30 a.m. the day of the event, but registration online is encouraged at rangeleymaine.com/dog-day-registration.

After the fun walk/run, certificates will be awarded in several categories, including best lookalikes (dog and owner), largest dog and more.
The route and registration location will be announced prior to the event and be based on trail conditions.
