On July 19, 2019, the Northwest Region for the National Police Canine Association is hosting a fundraiser for working service dog teams.

If you've ever seen a K9 unit at work, you've seen what hardcore discipline looks like. Dogs that can sniff out explosives or drugs or find a lost child are a true gift to any community and deserve assistance to continue their efforts. The law enforcement professionals involved in the National Police Canine Association provide training and certifications for Patrol, Drug, and Explosives Detection and Tracking units in order to support the needs of both canines and their human handlers. 

On Friday, July 19, the Lamar Street Center (5885 Lamar St.) in Arvada is hosting a fundraiser and silent auction to benefit the Northwest Region chapter of the NPCA.

The Lamar Street Center is a private-venue car collection museum that is only open to the public four times a year, so come check out some amazing cars and support those who serve their communities with the help of working dogs.
