Gold Rush 2025!

Do you know what you call a gathering of Golden Retrievers? It’s called a HALO! Thus, the theme of this year’s Gold Rush event will be a HALO of Goldens.

GRRIN’s annual golden retriever festival will be Sunday, September 21st from noon to 3 at SumTur Amphitheater in Papillion. All of our two legged friends and their four legged (leashed and well behaved) pals are invited to attend this free community event! There will be fun games like the cake walk, plinko and the wet t-shirt dog race. Guess how many biscuits are in the jar and take home a lot of great treats for your dog courtesy of Woof n Whiskers! Our community partners will be there to discuss pet care, pet supplies, dog training and many
other services. By visiting our partners, you could be entered in for a chance to win a $100 gift card from Woof n Whiskers.

We are excited for Streetside Food Truck to be on-site with concessions available for purchase. Sit in our covered picnic area to relax with your pet and converse with friends and other dog owners. Need more GRRIN swag in your wardrobe? Stop by our GRRIN store for shirts, hats, dog toys and our 2026 GRRIN calendars, featuring photos of Goldens submitted by GRRIN members.

We always hope for the best weather, but come rain or shine, the event will take place! Keep in touch with us through our website and
Facebook for the most up to date information on the event. Want to volunteer or donate? Email us at goldrush@grring.org
