Paint-A-Pooloza 2015

2015 Paint-A-Pooloza Was a Blast!

Look at the beautiful dog sled houses

Wow! We woke up Saturday morning to the sound of rain. “Oh no!” I couldn’t believe that after all our hard and careful planning, mother nature once again decided to deal us a bad hand. Fortunately, we had faith in the weather forecast and right around our 11:00am kick off mother nature parted the clouds and left us with brilliant sunshine. Thank you to all our local artists who came out to help us paint dog houses. Check out some of the beautiful works of are below.

The even was so much fun. We grilled hot dogs and offered Glacier Brewhouse Rootbeer. Kids were also able to make rootbeer floats with vanilla icecream.

We witnesses lots of creativity and passion. Everyone was excited to help us jazz up our dog yard.

Everyone was full of smiles and enjoyed mixing paint and coming up with their own unique creations.

Some houses got painted with several colors whereas other houses were simply back drops for other creations.

Look at all that color! Gorgeous!

There were even some creative uses of painters tape.

Our friends created a nautical themed dog house because they come from family of fishmen.

There’s always time for splatter paint!

We had several beautiful splatter paint houses.

All in all, I’d say the day was a great success. We gave several dog sled rides with both the kids and dogs equally enthusiastic.
