Capital Corgi Meetup Group

TBD based on bloom forecast

Meet at the columns!!!

Come walk the Azalea trail loop which is accessible and pretty level ground. There is always overflow parking at the NY avenue entrance so if you are running late and can't find parking feel free park there and catch up to the group. The walk will be fairly informal so that you can selfie your corgi to your heart's content since we have a Mother's day event later in May. We should be done by 10:30 or so.

As always bring whatever you need (poop bags, water, stroller) for your corgis and RSVP the number of CORGIS attending. Normal rules apply for us (need full dog vaccination, no females in heat, no aggressive behavior allowed, mixes always welcome if corgi friendly, be responsible for your own corgi and "human puppies" behavior if bringing kids) but you may want to double check the venue rules. Entrance should be free but as this is not my venue venue may surprise us with events or fees so always be prepared.

I'm not the host or organizer so please make sure to RSVP to their posting. This is just to spread the word to the corgi community.

###### Third Annual

## Corgis Uncorked!

The time has come for our most highly anticipated event of the year! We have 30 corgis that have been tirelessly training to once again take to the track to find out who is this years short legged speed demon! At the races you can expect multiple qualifying heats, music, delicious food by Slice Versa and of course our 100% estate grown wines!

Due to the corgis being off-leash and more car traffic on property, we only allow dogs that are competing in the races to be on property for this event. Please know that this decision was made with the safety of the racing corgis and your pup in mind!
