South Loop Doods September Meetup: White Sox Dog Day ⚾

Join South Loop Doods for our September community meetup at Chicago White Sox Dog Day as the White Sox take on the Pittsburgh Pirates!

This annual fan-favorite event gives dog lovers the chance to bring their pups to the ballpark for a fun night of baseball, community, and wagging tails. While South Loop Doods is not affiliated with or hosting the White Sox event, we're using Dog Day as our September meetup and will coordinate a gathering spot inside the stadium so dood families can connect throughout the evening.

Whether you're a longtime South Loop Doods member or attending your first event, we'd love to have you join us for this unique Chicago experience.

South Loop Doods Meetup Plan
