Light the Luminaries for Paws
For just $5, purchase a luminary bag in honor or memory of a beloved pet. Decorate it ahead of time or create it with us at the event using photos, drawings, messages, and memories that make your companion uniquely yours.
As the sun sets, glowing luminaries will line the winding garden paths of Stolley Park. Every bag tells a story. Every light represents a life that mattered. Together they create a breathtaking tribute to the unconditional love our pets have given us.
This evening is for:
The dog who waited at the door every day.
The cat who curled up beside you through life’s hardest moments.
The horse, rabbit, bird, or any beloved companion who changed your world.
The pets still sharing our lives today, reminding us to cherish every moment.
Bring your family. Bring your stories. Bring a photo. Walk the illuminated gardens, celebrate the lives that shaped us, and remember that love never truly leaves.
A pet is never truly forgotten until it is no longer remembered.
Luminary Bags: $5 each
Decorate them before the event or at our decoration station.
Every luminary purchased helps The Good Life Rescue continue saving homeless pets in need.
Because while their paws may no longer walk beside us, their love will forever light our path.
Save the date - we have some fun stuff planned!

Canine Clean Up - Demolition Derby
Don’t forget to build an extra car—or save one—for our infamous Demo for the Dogs pasture derby in Palmer!
We still can’t believe how much buzz this event created last year. We pulled it together in just three weeks and ended up with an incredible 38-car turnout! The support from the derby community and dog lovers alike absolutely blew us away.
Whether you came for the crashing cars, the laid-back tailgate atmosphere, or because you love helping homeless dogs, thank you.
You made the first year something truly special, and we’re so excited to do it all over again.
The response this year has been amazing, and we can’t wait to bring back one of the most fun charity events we’ve ever planned!
Even better… we’re adding a second derby this year!
If you can’t make it to Palmer, we hope you’ll join us in Central City. Both events are shaping up to be an absolute blast, and every car, every spectator, and every sponsor helps us continue saving lives.
So start building, start planning, and we’ll see you in the arena!
