East Sacramento Supports the SPCA – Join the Fun

Join the Sacramento SPCA for the 19th Annual Doggy Dash and Bark at the Park Festival on Saturday, June 9th in beautiful William Land Park. An estimated 5,000 animal enthusiasts will gather both with and without their canine companions to raise funds for animals sheltered at the Sacramento SPCA. For 18 years, two- and four-legged participants have attended this event, creating a tradition in Sacramento and transforming Doggy Dash into one of the biggest “can’t miss” events of the year!

Make sure to stay after the Dash for our Bark at the Park Festival, where you can enter your canine pal in the Pup Show, high-flying Disc Contest, or our ever-popular Pug Races! Visit with pet-friendly businesses, learn about Sacramento-area animal rescue organizations, or just have lunch while watching all the action.

Register today! Whether you choose to bring a canine companion or invite a two-legged friend, mark your calendar and join us for Doggy Dash and Bark at the Park Festival and help make a difference in the lives of homeless animals sheltered at the Sacramento SPCA.

East Sacramento Gets Police Crime Alert

 

 

Central area (Downtown, Midtown, East Sac, and Campus area) – for the past month we have seen a significant spike in stolen vehicles. The stats show that 90s era Hondas (Accord and Civic), are the stolen vehicle of choice. We (SPD) are aware of this rise and are actively working several different strategies to curtail the thefts. Please do not leave anything valuable in your car. Secondly, if possible garage your vehicle, if garaging your vehicle is not an option try and park in a well lit area or in your driveway. A motion sensor light in your driveway is also a great deterrent, not only for auto thefts but for burglaries as well.
