I was able to get the pavilion located right beside the Paw Playground this time. There is also a human playground if you wish to bring your children. A map of the park is here if you wish to see the layout. I've reserved Pavilion #3 for our use. In the event of rain we will just meet at the pavilion since it is covered.


Costume Contest Info

We will be holding a costume contest! The meetup will be in the afternoon, we'll let the doggies play for a while in the paw playground and then dress them up for our costume contest and fashion show. Prizes will be given out for best costumes in different categories. Participation is of course optional, feel free to bring your corgi and look at all the other tortured corgis if you want biggrin


Snacks

If you can, please bring snacks of some type so we can have some finger foods (chips, cookies, crackers, veggies etc.) available. You can indicate in your RSVP comment if you're bringing something so everyone else can see it. If you wish to bring something that needs to be on ice you may want to bring your own cooler.


Raffle

We're also holding a raffle to benefit CorgiAid!
Kollars by Kathryn has generously donated two gift certificates for customized martingale leash/collar combos. If you win one of the gift certificates you can contact her and choose the style/colors for your leash! Her leashes are all the rage in the agility world right now and definitely something you can't find in any pet store.

All raffle proceeds will be donated directly to CorgiAid in our meetup groups name. Please bring cash if you wish to buy tickets for the raffle. You can buy as many tickets to enter as you'd like - tickets will be on sale for $1 each. The drawing will be held at the meetup and I will bring some leashes she's already made so you can get an idea of what they look like.

CorgiAid is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to supporting independent rescue of Pembroke and Cardigan Welsh corgis and corgi mixes of either breed worldwide. We provide funds for extraordinary expenses involved in rescue. These expenses could be such things as major medical expenses to provide quality of life for rescued animals, transportation expenses to move a rescued corgi long distances to a new home, and other similar expenses.


John Chestnut Park Rules
No alcohol, helium balloons, tacks/nails or firearms are allowed inside the park. All dogs must be on a 6' or shorter leash while outside of the paw playground.

    I'll bring a veggie tray... Maybe that'll offset the yummy dessert that Jen is bringing! ;)

       Great park for the meet-up. However it was a far drive for us, hopefully in the future the group can meet somewhere closer to the Tampa or Brandon.

       I really enjoyed meeting other Corgi's and their parents. All the costume were so cute and the dogs were so good with them. I look forward to the next one in december!!
