SA Guide-Dogs Family Fun Day returns this March

The SA Guide-Dogs Association for the Blind is delighted to announce the return of its annual family fun day, taking place on March 8 at its Johannesburg premises.

Bring the whole family along for a fun-filled day of entertainment, activities, and unforgettable experiences while supporting a truly meaningful cause.

They’ve put together an exciting line-up to keep everyone entertained throughout the day. Don’t miss the adorable puppies in training as they strut their stuff in the best-dressed puppy parade.

Be inspired by assistance dogs as they showcase their incredible skills in action-packed arena demonstrations, and see the association’s orientation and mobility team in action as they highlight the vital services they provide every day.

There’s truly something for everyone. Enjoy a guided tour of their facilities, or relax in the charming tea garden under the shade of a magnificent oak tree.

For younger visitors, the kids zone promises endless fun with face painting, a jumping castle, a magician, a puppet show by Leo’s Edutainment, and a few surprise activities along the way.

Throughout the day, soak up the atmosphere with live arena entertainment, browse the market stalls, enjoy live music, indulge in delicious food and treats, or unwind in the beer garden.
