NEW DATE ANNOUNCED

Prevention Fest is moving to Saturday, July 17, 2027.

The Animal-Angels Foundation board met and made the call to move the first annual Animal Welfare Prevention Fest from July 2026 to July 17, 2027 at Fultondale Bark Park.

Prevention Fest works when the partners, sponsors, rescues, and shelters under the tent are already in real relationship with AAF and with each other. We have the foundation. We do not yet have the depth. One more year to build it.

Same venue. Same vision. A network that has had a year to grow into the moment.

WHY PREVENTION FEST

Every Station. Every Conversation. Every Connection.

Most pet surrender begins before the shelter. Families are often out of options, not out of love. Prevention Fest puts the whole support network in one place for one day. Wellness. Training. Housing resources. Behavior help. Adoption matches. Community.

Thirty activity stations across wellness, education, fun, and adoption. Every partner is a piece of the prevention network. Every family leaves with at least one new resource they did not know about.

Join the prevention movement.

WHAT IS HAPPENING

33 Activity Stations Across 6 Zones

Prevention Fest is a collaboration-style event. Partners choose an activity station that fits their skills and services. You are not just setting up a booth. You are running a named activity that families can find and count on. You can still promote your organization, but the focus is on delivering something real to the community that day.

Wellness Zone (10 stations): vaccines, microchips, wellness checks, nail trims, flea/tick prevention, heartworm testing, pet nutrition consults, dental checks, body condition scoring, dog hydration station

Education Zone (12 stations): basic obedience demo, leash skills, crate training intro, landlord Q&A, renter rights workshop, SNIP info and signups, pet first aid, community cat info, pet budgeting, kids pet responsibility, senior pet care, breed myth facts

Fun Zone (4 stations): kids corner with coloring and crafts, photo booth, pet parade, face painting

Adoption Zone (3 stations): partner rescue meet-and-greets, Sniff and Greet (trainer-guided matches), post-adoption education station

Fundraising (1 station): raffle with donated items from local businesses

Logistics (3 stations): check-in and welcome, info booth and Pet Help Desk, lost and found

How partner stations work: When you sign up as a partner, you pick the station activity that matches what you do. A vet clinic might run the vaccine station. A trainer might run the leash skills demo. A landlord or property manager might staff the renter rights workshop. Every partner gets a named activity, a visible station in their zone, and the freedom to represent their organization while delivering real services to families. Sign up as a partner and choose your station.

Bring the kids. Prevention Fest has a dedicated Fun Zone with face painting, a kids corner with coloring and crafts, a photo booth, and a pet parade. While parents visit the wellness and education stations, the kids have their own space to enjoy the day. This is a family event from top to bottom.
