Best Friends Walk Together

Come out in support of our rescues and shelters. 

Walk with or without your best friend and enjoy a morning walk through the historic Town of Onancock. 

The route begins at the Historic Onancock School, takes you past scenic views of Onancock Creek, historic homes and quaint town businesses and finishes back at the school where light refreshments will be served.  Walk is approximately 2 miles.
