27th Annual ROMPat 410½ E. Fillmore Street

Every year, ROMP takes on a new theme, bringing a fresh twist to Colorado Springs’ longest-running dog event. For the 27th Annual ROMP, we’re heading to camp! Camp ROMP is a FREE community celebration where dog lovers, families, local businesses, rescues, and community organizations can enjoy a day of camp-inspired games and activities, demonstrations, shopping, delicious food, and plenty of wagging tails. Grab your (imaginary) hiking boots, gather your crew, and join All Breed Rescue & Training (ABRT) on Saturday, August 22, in celebration of International Homeless Animals’ Day. While the theme changes each year, the heart of ROMP remains the same: bringing the community together to have fun while supporting dogs in need. Your participation helps support ABRT’s mission to rescue, rehabilitate, rehome, and train dogs throughout the Pikes Peak Region. Whether you’re a longtime ROMP attendee or joining the adventure for the first time, pack your gear and get ready for a tail-wagging day at Camp ROMP! This calendar listing is brought to you by Peak Radar, the Pikes Peak region’s one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region.
