The Cornell Student Chapter of the American Veterinary Medical Association (SCAVMA) will hold its annual dog wash Saturday, Sept. 14. The event is open to the public and will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the courtyard in front of the Veterinary Research Tower on the Cornell University campus

Proceeds from the SCAVMA dog wash help underwrite students' travel expenses to educational events, such as symposia and professional conferences.

The suggested donation is $5 per dog, and free parking is available in the B lot nearby. The Veterinary Research Tower is located on Tower Road, east of the university's central campus. Coordinators ask that all dogs at the event be leashed.
