Since all the cool kids are doing it, we should too! I've heard a few of you say that you might be interested in a Chicago meet up. Lake County has so many great places that are dog friendly and most are $!0 or less for an entire day of fun.
With the summer quickly coming to a close, I thought we might want to start working on this. What about something in September? The weather is usually still great!
I'm happy to coordinate this if there is enough interest. I might need a little help though since I'm two hours from the city. But maybe some folks from Wisconsin and Northwest Indiana might like to come too?
I was hoping we could do September 26, but the 12th would work for my too - I just have to rearrange with some house guests. It sounds like Caryn knows the best places. I'm up for any place.
Can we get a head count of how many people are interested?
we are very interested, but don't plan around us...
we are showing a lot in Sept., including the weekend of the 12th and 13th in Lebanon, IN so we will be out of town.
Make your plans, let me know the day, and we will try our hardest to make it! If we're not gone at a dog show, you can count on at least me and the Tito Monster. Tiny and Toby might or might not want to come along....
Have you decided on a place yet? I'm in Milwaukee and would be interested, Independence Grove is not real far, haven't checked the other sites yet. Keep me posted on a date and time. Sounds like fun, haven't met anyone from the forum yet!
I just checked back on this to see what was happening with it. I'm hesitant to actually go to this only because Flora really has absolutely no interest in other dogs, but she sure does like people! I'd probably still go, if my schedule allows it.
Any more news on this? Are people still considering the week of 9/26? I'd love to do this while the weather is still nice. We know how quickly the weather can turn ugly in the Midwest.
Well, it's not as formal, but we will be up there are one of the parks this coming Sunday. If you want to join Bogey, me and my husband, please let me know.
I did some restoration work and a prairie burn at a park with a few lakes somewhere in Libertyville, but for the life of me I cannot remember what it was called. Would be kind of cool if that was Independence Grove.
Anyhow, any of the aforementioned parks are about an hour from me, but that's no big deal. As far as I'm aware I have nothing going on on Sunday, but I'll have to see. I'm just starting a new job, so that could change. Anyone else interested in this Sunday?
