  • Pat Piotrowski

    August 8th is good for us, how abt everyone else?
  • Chris

    8-8 would be good for us. An 11 start time would be best, but a little later would be fine as well.
  • elisabeth fry

    August 8th will be great. :)
    We are going today as well around 5pm for a swim as the weather is pretty good :) woof woof
  • Bev Levy

    Can do either 8-1 or 8-22 but not the 8th 0r 14th. Summer is tough!
  • LaRissa L. Head

    Let's pick a date soon, Roslyn needs some corgi love!
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Aug 22 works for us
  • Bev Levy

    Anybody for 8-22??
  • Dennay & Barkley

    Unfortunately 8/8 is the only day that works for us except for the very last weekend in August...:(
  • LaRissa L. Head

    22nd works for Nate, Roslyn and I!
    The Michigan Corgi Aid Picnic (yahoo group) is meeting in Ray MI on the 20th of Aug. Is anyone else going to that? I'm bringing a corgi painting and a handmade corgi jewelry box for the auction.
    It would be fun to make a weekend of it!
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Then lets move it to the last weekend on aug what is that the 29th? And get this going!
  • Bev Levy

    I can do the 29th!!
  • elisabeth fry

    Awe too bad. Bruno and i will be returning to CALIFORNIA on the 20th of august. cheers you all

    Sorry everyone for not getting back to you about the July meetup, that needed to be rescheduled. I went on vacation! Gunner and Gracie learned to swim in the lake, Gracie was quite a good swimmer. She would just jump off the dock and swim away... till she was ready to get out. Cracked us up! She would use her back legs like a rudder... if she would start to tilt on the back end she would paddle with just one leg and would right herself. Anyway back to the meet. How about the 8th and then we can do the 22nd again, for those that want to. I live fairly close so I can do both. But I know Elisabeth would like to meet us as she is from California. Those that can make it on the 8th we can do 11-2, and then again on the 22nd same time same place... let me know and I will post.
  • elisabeth fry

    Darlene :) yes yes we will be there on the 8th as the lake is our fav hangout on the weekends. see you there woof woof
  • Chris

    The 8th works for us :-)
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Let me know where, we may be able to make the 8th depending on the weather. Will know more closer to the day, but katie is way overdue for a corgi playdate
  • elisabeth fry

    Bruno and I wil be there in the main area by 11 am on the 8th. for some ball catching and meet and greet, then we will move on to the doggie dock for a swim. :) the park has a fantastic layout for those who have not been there .... there is a info booth as well. and dont forget money for parking if you dont have a michigan park permit. cheers
  • LaRissa L. Head

    Roz will be there on the 8th!
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Looks like we wont be able to make this weekend, but will definately make the 22nd, hope everyone will still go on the 22nd!
  • Dennay & Barkley

    I like the idea of doing it both weekends because we can definitely make it this weekend, but we won't be in town on the 22nd. Barkley is very excited that the playdate is rescheduled.
  • Darlene Hennessy

    ok the 22nd it is!, Gunner and Gracie are sooooo excited!
  • Bev Levy

    Bummer, I guess we will miss both of them!!
  • Bev Levy

    OOps I can do the 22nd!! LOl
  • Pat Piotrowski

    It would be nice to have the Cori Meetups once a month, until the weather gets too cold! wouldn't it?
  • Darlene Hennessy

    Hi all, I will be there today, but not until about noon... see you then. @Pat yes it would be. I was trying to do once a month. But our wonderful weather wasn't so cooperative. But I will again try for Sept, (plus the one 8/22), and maybe we can talk about meeting once a month.
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Great! Would love to do this once a month. That way, if someone couldn't come one month they could make it the next month. I won't make it today but we will dsefinately be there the 22nd.
  • Darlene Hennessy

    Hi all, I didn't get there until late... Elisabeth and Bruno were just leaving. I did meet Lauren and Izzy, who had met Elisabeth and Bruno and came when I got there. That was about 1p. Did anyone else show up? Hope you all had fun.
  • Dennay & Barkley

    We got there at about noon and stayed until just before 1, the pup was getting really warm and I can't get him to go swimming unless I'm in the water too...and that's not happening, haha.
  • Chris

    We were there at 11 and met Bruno and Barkley. Was hoping to see more there, but was nice to see a few!
  • Pat Piotrowski

    Is everyone still going this weekend? the 22nd? Please let me know, Katie has been looking forward to this!
  • Chris

    We can't make it unfortunately :-(
  • Bev Levy

    I am pretty sure we will be there. I am having a large party the night before so my husband is a little reluctant but I still think we will make it.
  • Darlene Hennessy

    We will be there!
  • McCalls Pembroke Welsh Corgis

    Anabelle, Dexter and Pixie will hopefully be there:)
  • Bev Levy

    Unfortunately we will not be there. Hopefully next time!
  • Pat Piotrowski

    well at least the weather will be better tomorrow for those that can make it!
  • McCalls Pembroke Welsh Corgis

    Glad to hear that!
  • Darlene Hennessy

    We will be there, hopefully we will see some of you tomorrow. What dates would be good for September? Suggestions for another dog park appreciated :)
  • McCalls Pembroke Welsh Corgis

    Darlene and pat it looks like you are the only ones going besides us, maybe since it's not really near any of us we want to find a closer park( I know it's really last minute) but if you did- there is a nice small fenced in park in saline at the pet emporium . It's free and they have toys for the dogs too- it's usually empty too. If not we will make the drive but just thought since not too many are going - and since we are all very south of lake Orion .
  • Darlene Hennessy

    I am ok with that Tohnya...send us the address of it or at least the name. If Pat wants to go there instead we can switch. I will check in the AM for any new posts. Or at least later this AM...lol

  • Pat Piotrowski

    The pet emproium is much farther for me, Katie doesnt swim, unless I go in and take her so the water park is not much help. I could make the extra drive since I am the only one. I jsut worry about shade, Jatie doesnt like the heat much. is the a shaded area?
  • Pat Piotrowski

    I was going to leave about 11am or so, its about an hour 16 mins drive for me, as long as theres shade I will go to Ann Arbor. jsut let me know, I can be there a little after 12pm ok?
  • Darlene Hennessy

    Oh my... well both are a 90 min drive for me. I am not planning on using the lake, as you can't go in the water with the dogs, and mine seem to like the companion swim. The Lake Orion is grass, the Pet Emporium is wood chips. The Lake Orion has a huge tree with benches for shade, the Pet Emporium has a gazebo. One is free, one isn't. Soooo, I think either one is ok, but I am just wondering if some people are going to come that didn't post... that happened at the one in AA. I am thinking we should just keep it at Lake Orion as it was posted. We can always go to Saline another time. I will be at Lake Orion about 1p. :o)
  • McCalls Pembroke Welsh Corgis

    Okay see you there
  • Pat Piotrowski

    okLake Orion it is, I live in Oakland county and its not that expensive for me. I was wondering the same thing, if people are going that didnt post, it would be better just in case.... or for last minute if someone looks at the original post.
    We can make the next one at Ann Arbor and try that one. I would like to see once a month get togethers, its good for the dogs!
  • McCalls Pembroke Welsh Corgis

    Defnatly, our 3 love to be social so we are good with meeting more often. Anyone know how much parking is?
  • Pat Piotrowski

    is everyone going to be there around 1pm?
  • Dennay & Barkley

    Parking for the day is $10 for non-residents and $5 for Oakland County residents.
