Because you may have received goods in consideration of this gift, all though not directly from CorgiAid, please consult your tax advisor regarding the deductibility of your gift.

We are updating our web page to tell the stories of the rescues we’ve been able to help. Please visit our site at www.corgiaid.org to see how your contribution is helping save and restore the health of these dogs.

Again, thank you for your support.

The 15th So Cal Corgi Picnic is SEPTEMBER 17!!!

.WHO: all corgi lovers and their corgis, honorary corgis and wannabe corgis
WHAT: a potluck picnic with CorgiFolk
WHEN: Saturday, September 17, 2011; 11:00 am to 4?:00 pm
WHERE: Griffith Park, Los Angeles, across from Roosevelt Golf Course (map posted)
WHY: we LOVE our corgis!!

This picnic site is rustic with lotsa trees for shade and a grassy area if you want to bring a pop-up.
The parking is closer and so is the restroom!

Professionally-suggested yellow jacket traps will be 'in attendance' directly above the food table!! 

There will be no Corgi Corral but there will be a Hitchin' Post.  There will definitely NOT be any agility equipment and no unleashed dogs 'cuz this site is on the street.


All else remains the same: potluck, musical mats, donations to
CorgiAid and So Cal-based corgi rescue, silent auction, good friends, and CORGIS!!

C'ya September 17th!
