The venue
Horry County Park and Rec South Strand is at 9650 Scipio Lane, Myrtle Beach, SC. The Fast CAT track is on grass and is independently fenced with 48-inch flexible mesh fencing. Verified 2027
Running order & check-in
Blocks open at the top of the hour, so early arrival is suggested — dogs not checked in by the quarter hour may lose priority and be moved to the next block or handled as late entries. If you have multiple dogs, or dogs that need rest between runs, enter them in different time blocks. A lunch break may be taken between 12:00 and 1:00 PM on Friday and Saturday; there is no lunch break on Sunday, and all first runs must be checked in by 1:00 PM on Sunday.
Lodging
No host-hotel list is published in the premium — Myrtle Beach has extensive pet-friendly lodging; confirm pet policies directly with the hotel. Pending
