*Memorial Day Weekend *BASH* @ Findlay, OHIO Bark Park ~ *SUNDAY* MAY 28, 2006 ~

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Debby, you will have sooo much fun! We've gone to two of the Memorial Day Bashes - and we don't even have a dog! It's sooo fun meeting everyone, and watching the dogs have a blast. The food is always good and it's just so fun putting faces with names & dogs.

We missed last year, and it looks like we'll have to miss this year too.....drat!

Awww, too bad you'll miss it! Not like we have to go all the way to Ohio to meet considering we probably work blocks from each other.

Is Perrysburg close to Findlay?

Did you post then delete this question??

Answer depends on how you define "close"!

Perrysburg is 43 miles (about 52 driving minutes) due NORTH of the Dog Park at Findlay.

Perrysburg is just South of the Ohio Turnpike and sits between I-75 and I-475.
It's pretty easy to get form Perrysburg onto I-75 and zip south to the Dog Park -
just allow an Hour to drive it.

You can use
http://www.Mapquest.com
to research motel locations and the routing to the Dog Park ...
OR - Go back a few posts and use the *LINK* I posted to MapQuest -
all you need to enter is a "Starting Address" - can be your home or a Motel.

I just harnessed the power of Mapquest.

I reserved a hotel room!!! I'm so excited.

Edit to add: Thanks for your help Phred. That's excatly what I did, go back and re-read stuff.

Are you gonna be in the same hotel as me?

No, we're going to be at the Econo Lodge. (Big spenders, I know.)

Do you need to be a member of the dog park to go to this event? What do I need to bring (vet papers, dog lisence...etc)?

On the first post of this thread, Phred outlined what we'll need to get our pups in the park. Later on in the thread, I believe he attached the applications as well. I can't wait to meet everyone.

BTW, I just got confirmation from the hubby. WE'LL BE THERE!!!

My dad said I can come but I'm still trying to find out where I'm going to stay. He wants to drop me off in OH and drive to MI. Don't know if I'll be coming or not.

[Cincy'sMom]

I'm so glad so many people are able to come!!! Can't wait!!

The fenced doggie area of the park is so big Nanook could easily stay away from the doggers being rowdy. There's even a "time out" cage, too, or he could hang out up at the pavillion with the people, too. Of course it will depend on how he's feeling at the time, we understand that.

We missed last year,
and it looks like we'll have to miss this year too.....drat!

WHAT!??
Missing THIS year, too!???

What's up - I thought "we" worked around the House Sale Problem??

Can't you squeeze a Road Trip in Saturday afternoon and goof off on Sunday with us??

I switched my shifts that weekend - so I'll be getting off at 11am (starting at 11pm the nite before) so I may go and sleep for a few hours and then come - try to be there around 3-4 and will prolly stay later.

Sue- Coldwater isn't too far away from Anna - you might be able to follow her up or work something out.
