I just thought of a list of do's:

1) Exchange cell phone numbers. The first meetup we planned, YT went down that day, and several of us were wondering around a huge park, Yorkies in tow, hopelessly looking for each other, never to be found. If we had cell numbers, would never have happened.
2) Bring water dishes/bottles of water for your Yorkies, also, dry kibble if it is around their meal times.I used disposable bowls from the supermarket.
3) Snacks and drinks for the Yorkie Mommies (can't forget them, can we?)
4) Foldup chairs/throws for Moms to sit on while the babies frollick in the pen. (The linked ones shown in the pictures all came from stores like PetsMart.)

Possible don't:
1) Dog Parks - do not have good facilities, people tend to go there, let their dogs run around for a while and leave. Also, many of them don't have toilet facilities or benches, often very little trees for shade. I am also leary of dog parks regarding disease, larger, more aggressive dogs with tiny little Yorkies.
