Bark in the Park is by far the largest fundraising event hosted by the Peoria Humane Society. It started back in 1997 with a handful of volunteers and about 50 participants at Glen Oak Park. The event has grown to over 1000 registrants in its largest year, and now requires more than 150 volunteers. It is a family friendly event that has something for pets, pet lovers, kids, and adults.
