Illinois Corgi Picnic
Sunday, September 11, 2011
Noon to 5pm
Friends Forever Dog Park, Freeport, Illinois
Potluck Lunch
Welcome Corgi Lovers!
Everyone is invited to join us for an afternoon of Corgi fun!
We will be meeting Sunday, September 11 at Friends Forever Dog Park in Freeport, Illinois. This 10-acre park includes an agility course, an area just for smaller dogs, and a huge pond. The park is fenced so your dog can run, play, socialize off leash and go for a swim! This park was chosen by Pet Fancy Magazine as one of the top dog parks in the country!
Check it out! http://members.petfinder.org/~IL124/dogpark/index.html
There will be a potluck lunch. Plan to bring something to share with the group. I hope there are some good cooks out there! Otherwise, pick up some potato salad, brownies, or picnic food from your favorite grocery. Also, bring your own drinks and table service (plate, silverware, napkin, etc.). Other items you might want to bring are lawn chairs, coolers, sunscreen, dog towels, etc.. Whatever you do, don’t forget the Corgis!
To enter the dog park each participant must show a current rabies tag and proof of current vaccinations for each dog. DHLP is required. Bordetella is recommended, but not required. There is a $5 fee per dog for a one day pass. Daily passes are available at the information booth or in the shelter office the day of the picnic. No puppies under the age of 4 months are allowed in the dog park. There is a maximum of 2 dogs per adult. To read more information about the Friends Forever Dog Park rules or to download the form for admittance prior to your visit, go to the following link. http://friendsforeverhs.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/dog-park-con...
The Friends Forever Dog Park is located at 966 Rudy Road just south of Freeport, Illinois. Watch for the signs on Highway Route 26. The Friends Forever Humane Society is a shelter for homeless animals which is also on the premises. Please bring an item to donate to their shelter. A list of suggestions from the shelter is at the following link. http://friendsforeverhs.org/donate_p/donate-goods/

YUMMY! I don't want to miss that!
Hey, is that pasta salad without meat? I am a vegetarian.

QUESTION for anyone who went to the Freeport event 2 years ago.
Is there enough shade? The satellite pictures don't show a lot of shade.
I wrote the park to find out if they allowed EZ-Ups. I am waiting for the answer. Do you remember if they had them at the picnic in 2009?

Thanks for the info.
I am looking forward to seeing this park. It sounds and looks great from what I saw online.
Our local park is pretty much a grassy field. They put in some trees recently, but they provides no shade yet. Plus our dog park is right next to the sewage treatment plant which can be a problem when the wind blows the wrong way. I know I would never have a picnic there! (Still our Corgis love it because they get to run with the big dogs.)

GREAT! Several of you are stating that you are coming to the picnic, but please RSVP on the Events listing on the Main Page of MyCorgi. (You have to hit ALL Events because ours is buried on the next page.) So far there only Kim, Kelly, and myself have posted a RSVP. I am really NOT concerned with the count. Frankly, if a lot of people RSVP there, more people will be interested in our event. If it looks like only 3 people are going, others might think it is not worth going to. I am just trying to sell it!
Thanks, guys!

Maybe Mia, Herky & Kim can copy and paste the info above into the main discussion, so that everyone will see it right off the bat. One step further, maybe copy and paste the link to the event as well. Just a suggestion. Sounds like it will be a great time, can't wait to see the pics and videos.

Kim, please do that!
