It's the lovely month of May and we'll be gathering in Chula Vista this month. We hope to see all our wonderful regular members plus many new friends. Everyone is welcome, of course. Bring a friend, bring your puppy - come and have a romp! See you there!

As usual, the meetup will be from approximately 10am to noon.

The March Meetup for our wonderful Corgis and their equally sociable owners will be held on March 24th at 10am at Poway Community Park. Come one, come all!

We seem to be gaining new members every month as evidenced by the terrific participation at these events and how word of mouth is swelling the size of the group. Who would have thought that there were so many Corgi-type people in San Diego? Our members are doing a great job talking to Corgi lovers they encounter and encouraging them to join in the fun!

You're invited to participate in this gathering if you have a Corgi, or if you have a Corgi and another dog too, or if you don't have a Corgi yet but are thinking about it, or even if you think you might enjoy seeing a whole bunch of short dogs running around like crazy, having a wild old time! This is a casual, friendly group. We'd love to see you and your dog(s) and your friends too.

Please join us for a couple hours of fun and frolic!

Happy New Year, all you Corgi fans.

Our first San Diego Corgi Meetup of the year should be an exciting one. We'll go back to the 4th Saturday of the month and watch out - it's a different location this month. We'll be meeting at Henry Griffin Park in La Mesa. This is also a fenced facility and has plenty of parking. Please see the map for directions.

Everyone is welcome at a Corgi Meetup. That includes corgis and other assorted family dogs, corgi owners, and miscellaneous friends too! Wear casual clothes (people only!) and join us for fun and frolic as we begin 2007 with a wonderful group of romping pooches. This month, we'd even like to create an opportunity to give something back. And we thought it would be fun to do it as a group.

How about a donation for Best Friends Animal Society:

We feel fortunate to live in the best city, with the best kind of dogs (corgis, of course), and to enjoy the best weather anywhere in the US. Because you are coming to these gatherings, we know you are a concerned and loving pet owner. But not all animals have it as good as your short little dog does! There is a wonderful organization in Utah called Best Friends Animal Society. They take in all kinds of animals from all over the US - and even recently from Iraq. This is a no-kill facility and these animals have a home for life even if no adoptive family can be found. You can find out more about them at http://www.bestfriends.org.

Best Friends has a need for everything. Do you have old towels you can donate? Or an old animal bed or old puppy toys that you dog doesn't need anymore? These people can use it. They need dog and cat food, grooming items like brushes and combs, you name it. Last year, JB and I sent a big box of old towels and received a wonderful thank you letter. And, of course, they can always use cash donations. What can you spare? Whatever it is, please bring it to the January meeting and we'll bundle it up and send it to Best Friends. Note: Weight counts in shipping! Please don't bring a giant bag of cat litter.

If you have any questions about what you might contribute, you can email me at cm@bluebearsoft.com and I'll get back to you.

We look forward to seeing everyone on the 27th. Happy January!
