Blue Palms Resorts Offers Pet-Friendly Stay Package

  

Morey's Piers & Beachfront Water Parks' famed puppy pool party returns to the boardwalk of Wildwoods, NJ. On Sunday, September 13, 2015, Morey's Piers "goes to the dogs," opening the gates of Raging Waters Water Park to dogs, with all proceeds benefiting the New Jersey SPCA.

The “Water Bark” will be open from 5:00pm to 7:00pm inviting canines to paddle along the river adventure, play in the fountain pool or fetch tennis balls in the activity pool.  Water bowls and free dog treats will be stationed throughout Raging Waters during the event and each dog will receive a Morey’s Piers souvenir to take home. Owners will find food and beverage menu options at the Wrecker’s Beach Grill for purchase. Admission is $20 per dog and $10 per person.

“Gone to the Dogs has become an annual tradition for families and their four-legged friends and a staple in celebrating the close of an action-packed water park season here at Morey’s,” added Jack Morey, second-generation partner of Morey’s Piers.  “Watching these happy pups running, splashing, and tails wagging…they have as much fun as people do!'

Blue Palms Resort, located steps away from Mariner’s Pier and Raging Waters Water Park, is offering pet-friendly accommodations from September 11 through 14, 2015.  The “Wildwood Unleashed” stay package starts at $62 per night (Sunday & Monday), and includes a welcome “doggie bag” and pet-cleaning fee.  Two-night minimum stay is required; limited space available.
