Palos Park to host pet parade, hot dog celebration
Palos Park will conclude its summer concert series Thursday with a pet parade and National Hot Dog day celebration.
While Palos Park's previous two concerts have been marketed to the adults, the next one is meant for the whole family, said Mose Rickey, the recreation and parks director for Palos Park.
The event will be held at the Palos Park's Village Green, which is behind the village's recreation center at 8901 W. 123rd St.
A pet parade will travel through the village green, where residents can participate with any kind of pet. The parade will begin at 5:30 p.m.
"The kids just love to see their animals and be with their pets," Rickey said.
There also will be prize baskets given to animals and their owners for the following categories: best dressed, owner and pet look-a-like, most unusual, largest and smallest, according to the Palos Park website.
Officials hope to attract about 400 people to the National Hot Dog Day concert and pet parade. Admission is free. While prices for hot dogs haven't yet been determined, Rickey said they will be "cheap."
"It's a picnic atmosphere. It's really reasonable rates, and we've sold over 800 hot dogs before. A lot of people come down and it's a really good time," Rickey said.
The village's staff will prepare hot dogs.
"Our local grill master, Village Manager Richard Boehm, prepared most of the hot dogs in the past. He's the only man I know who's capable of cooking over 1,000 hot dogs," Rickey said.
"What kid doesn't like a hot dog?" Rickey asked. "What kid doesn't like chips? And what kid doesn't like to be with their pet out in the sun?"
The previous concerts this season included a folk music band at the village green and a concert at Swallow Cliff, which featured island music, according to Rickey.
Musicians Mitch Mayer and David Gaidas will provide entertainment.
"They play a plethora of music and provide a wide variety of entertainment," Rickey said.
Check-in for the pet parade will start at 5:00 p.m. The concert will wrap up at 7:30 p.m.
