Pick up a wristband, goody bag and treat map at the booths in Pulaski Square or Starland Yard, 2411 De Soto Ave., where walk-up registration is also open. Wiener races run in Pulaski Square through the weekend, and the organizers say a dog does not have to be a dachshund to enter. Source: Wag-O-Ween weekend details.
