• Guy Harvey Outpost Resort on St. Augustine Beach is hosting a weekend full of fun at the beach with several Pups & Sups events on Friday and Saturday, September 27 and 28, 2019, featuring the "Hang 20" surf competition, a pet costume contest, and a Yappy Hour — all for the pups, and all to benefit K9s for Warriors.

Everyone is invited, with or without their animals, for cocktails and kibble at Santiago's Florida Kitchen & Craft Bar at the Guy Harvey Resort. This is a chance to meet other competitors and register for the surf contest the next day. The Costume Contest ($10.00 donation to enter) is themed for doggy pirates and mermaids and will begin at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Complimentary boards will be provided by the Surf Station for those who have registered. There are three weight divisions: large dogs (51+ lbs.), medium dogs (21 lbs. - 50 lbs.), and small dogs (20 lbs. and under). No experience is necessary, just a life jacket for any dog on a board.
