May 08 4 2008 12:00 PM	Rock Creek Park Doggie Picnic 37 attended (est.) – 5.005 Our next event is a picnic at Rock Creek Park. It will be at picnic area #24. It has bathrooms, a shelter, a fireplace, parking, and is right next the Leg Mason Tennis Stadium. This will be bring your own beer. I'll bring some hot dogs and burgers to share. If have the time and inclination then feel free to bring something to grill or a dish to share. But please don't feel that you have to. I was very impressed with the dishes that people made last year and there was more than enough. This event will go from 12:00 until 3:00 PM. You dog is welcome. Please note that park regulations require your dog to be on a leash. So park rangers probably give tickets for dogs being off leash. This picnic area is more central than last year. So it'll be easier to find but also more patrolled I'd think. Directions: Google Maps: http://tinyurl.com/4hofc8 From Downtown Washington:Take 16th Street, NW north for four (4) miles. Look for the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center will be on the left. Then look for picnic area #24. From I-495: Take I-495 Exit 31/Georgia Avenue south toward Silver Spring. Stay in the right lane for approximately 1/4 mile, then bear right onto 16th Street (Route 390). After approximately three (3) miles, the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center will be on the right. Then look for picnic area #24.	Only members of this Group can view the location for this Meetup	37 Yes 0 Maybe
Apr 08 26 2008 12:00 PM	Updated First warm weather event 43 attended (est.) – 4.506 Hello everyone, I've updated the first Doggie Happy hour event of the season. It'll be at Union Pub this Saturday at noon. I'm actually deleting the original event so I can get a better idea of how many people will show up. I think we have several people that signed up months ago and will not actually come. (Or fit in the bar...) Union Pub 201 Massachusetts Ave NE Washington, DC 20002 (202) 546-7200 (for those of you that don't live in the district please note that is is Mass Ave NORTHEAST which is near Union Station) So please re-RSVP if you plan to attend. Union Pub will have some specials on beer and pitchers but their official dog related specials will not begin for 2 weeks. Dogs are allowed on the patio. Please keep them on a leash at all times. The patio has a very good cover so the event will not be canceled by light rain. I'll post the next event soon. I reserved a picnic area in Rock Creek Park for Sunday May 4th.

Sep 07 23 2007 1:00 PM	Doggie Walk in Rock Creek Park 1 attended (est.) – 4.001 It looks like the weather is going to be beautiful this weekend. I'm going to take Storm for a walk in Rock Creek Park on Sunday and I thought I'd see if anyone else is interested. We'll meet at 1 PM on Sunday at the same parking lot where we had the picnic. Google Map (starting from the White House): http://tinyurl.com/2kylsu The Park is closed on the weekend to automobile traffic just north of the picnic area so we can just walk on the parkway with our dogs. It's not strenuous at all. There will be the occasional bike rider so please do NOT plan on having your dog off leash for the walk. But we can find other spots to let them free. I'm totally flexible on how long or how far we'll walk but let's say 2 hours for scheduling purposes. Email me with any questions.	Rock Creek Park Washington, DC, 20010	4 Yes 7 Maybe

The park regulations I read did not state anything about alcohol. I'm going to buy a bunch of hot dogs and burgers to share. If have the time and inclination then feel free to bring something to grill or a dish to share. But since this is right after work please don't feel that you have to. This event will go from 6 PM until Dark. Your friends without dogs are welcome.
