The MA Golden Meetups event, which honored the beloved Golden Retriever Spencer, has been canceled after the City of Boston denied permits for additional special events on Boston Common during marathon weekend. This decision affects the annual gathering that celebrated Spencer's legacy and raised funds for canine cancer research. Boston Parks and Recreation cited conflict with the Boston Athletic Association's existing permit for marathon-related activities. Residents are still welcome to gather outside designated areas but must adjust plans as special events are not allowed this year.
"We know many of you are looking forward to a Boston Marathon meetup, as these events are beloved to so many, however the city of Boston is not allowing special events that weekend on the Common this year."
"The annual meetup was created to honor Spencer, a Golden Retriever who became a celebrity in 2018 and was named the official dog of the Boston Marathon in 2022."
