When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper and grizzled ship captain Quint offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature.

Dog Days of Summer: Dog Pool Party
DATE TO BE DETERMINED
FREE Event, Pre-Registration Required
While the weather is still nice, treat your furry friends to a pool day at Samford Pool!
Samford Pool will be THE place for dogs that love to swim. Plan for tasty treats, doggie swimsuit contests, and of course all the fetch and fun they want. Only dogs will be allowed in the pool during this time and dog park rules apply (no pups under 4 months old, no females in heat, no unaltered males).

We will need proof of current vaccines for each dog in attendance. These can be emailed ahead of time to mtoohey@auburnalabama.org or you can bring them the day of the event.
