YOU'RE INVITED!
 
          All greyhounds and            their people and          dog friends are        invited for a day of         fun. The purpose is   simple -- to have fun and get acquainted with    other greyhounds & their Moms and Dads. This is a non group affiliated event, so we leave our group t-shirts behind and just celebrate our common love for greyhounds.

You know your greyhound wants to come, so get your party on and let's have a great time!

 
HIGHLIGHTS

American-style BBQ lunch
Fenced area for greyhound run
Wading pools for soaking
Fun games to play
Raffle prizes
Cool stuff for sale

 
WHAT TO BRING?

Perhaps an ex-pen & blankets & water dish so your dog can relax after running. Chairs and/or blankets for you. Some cash for our great all-American lunch (includes drink), raffle prizes, and anything you may want to pick up at the vendor tables.

 
LET'S BE SAFE:

All dogs must be kept on a
  leash, except in play field.
Bring an ex-pen for your grey if
  you'll be staying awhile.
If weather is hot, shade is
  provided courtesy of the trees.
Water is provided for the dogs.

WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?

Egg and Spoon Race

FUN

Simple get-acquainted games to play with your hounds. Egg & Spoon race, Find Your Twin and Bobbing for Hot Dogs have been past-year favorites.

BBQ

FOOD

Lunch for humans will be an All-American Fare: hamburger, hot dog or veggie burger with side dishes, a cookie and drink. An all-vegetarian lunch plate is available. For a lunch plate, we are requesting a donation of $8.50 to help defray costs. There will also be snacks for the dogs.

Field play

FIELD PLAY

The adjacent grassy ball field will be used as a supervised greyhound only play area. Up to 6 'hounds at a time can run & frolick to their heart's content. Greys are muzzled for safety (muzzles provided). Field Play sponsored by Pet Owners Organization of Citrus Heights (POOCH).

Cool Pools

COOL POOLS

After your houndie runs to his heart's content, he can cool down in a cool wading pool. These pools are much sought-after, so make your reservation now!
