A field of puppies and coolers of popsicles are coming to the Greenspace across from the Student Center this Monday, September 24 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m for "Pups and Pops," sponsored by The Public Relations Student Society of America of Auburn University.
With the purchase of a $5 ticket, students and locals will be able to play with puppies for about 20 minutes and choose a popsicle of their choice with flavors like soy peach agave and salted caramel.
The puppies are from For Paws Rescue, and the popsicles are made by The Overall Company of Opelika.
PRSSA said they wanted to raise awareness of local businesses with "Pups and Pops."
The proceeds raised from "Pups and Pops" will be split between PRSSA, For Paws Rescue and The Overall Company.
"It's a cool, original fundraising idea," said Sheyda Mehrara, member of PRSSA and junior in public relations. "Who doesn't love pups and Overall Co's pops?"
