DRAW SNOOPY CHALLENGE FOR SNOOPY'S BIRTHDAY MONDAY AUGUST 10, 2015

On Monday, August 10th, PEANUTS Celebrates the Birthday of “Snoopy,” its First and Only Lovable Dog!

 

Please join us in celebrating the Birthday of Peanuts first and only lovable dog, “SNOOPY,” on August 10! Cartoon beagle Snoopy is a sidekick/star of the long-running newspaper comic strip Peanuts, created by Charles Schulz. Snoopy was the oddball, manic pet of lovable loser Charlie Brown. Originally a minor figure, Snoopy grew to become the strip's best-known character. Snoopy, is the confident, totally-in-control, cool character we all, in our hearts (and fantasies) want to be. This year we celebrate the contributions the “Snoopy” character has made in entertainment.

·         Snoopy has a broad and vivid fantasy life, often delving into many alter egos.

·         Snoopy also has seven siblings, Spike, Belle, Marbles, Olaf, Andy, and two others named in the special Snoopy's Reunion as Molly and Rover .

·         Snoopy first appeared in the October 4, 1950 strip, two days after the strip began. Schulz originally planned to call him "Sniffy"
