Starkville Prepares for Exciting Dachshund Dash With Star Wars Theme
On May 4, 2024, the city will transform into a *wiener dog wonderland* as 200 adorable dachshunds prepare to race down University Drive. Yes, you heard that right! The Starkville Derby: Dachshund Dash is the world’s largest charity wiener dog race.
From 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., the Cotton District will be buzzing with excitement as dachshund lovers gather to cheer on their favorite furry contestants. This year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever before! And the best part? Entry is free for everyone who wants to join in on the fun!
This year, the theme is “Star Weens,” a clever nod to the iconic Star Wars franchise. Picture this: jockeys in costumes, dachshunds dressed to the nines, and probably a few lightsabers thrown into the mix!
While the dachshund races are undoubtedly the star of the show, there’s so much more to experience. Throughout the day, attendees can *explore a marketplace full of local artisans* selling their crafts, enjoy delectable food from an array of vendors, and take part in activities designed to entertain the whole family. And let’s not forget a much-anticipated sighting: the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile is set to make a special appearance, bringing even more joy to the celebration!
Last year marked the inaugural event, and it turned out to be a *greater success* than anyone anticipated! It seems the *hard work and dedication* behind the event paid off, and this year, everyone is gearing up for a larger turnout. With so many jubilant dachshunds and their delighted owners racing towards the finish line, it’s bound to be a scene of pure joy.
The Starkville Derby: Dachshund Dash isn’t just about the races; it’s about community. This event serves as a great way to support the Oktibbeha County Humane Society, meaning every little paw that crosses the finish line contributes to a larger cause.
This heartwarming event is not just a race; it’s a celebration of community, creativity, and, of course, our furry friends!
