Hey, guys and gals and fur friends!!

I would like to begin making plans for a Yorkie Meet Up for April! I am thinking either the 15th or the 22nd, and here is the place I would like to go!

Suggested hours would be 11-3, to give travelers lots of time to get there and play. Let me know if you have a different suggestion for the time.

Country Park is fairly easy to access off I-40, and I tried getting there from both Burlington and Winston-Salem. The directions are much easier from Winston, so I think everyone should use the PTI exit 210 and go from there. I will post directions as we get closer, but here is a yahoo map.

I took a walk through yesterday. (bbbrrrrrr!!!) The park is beautiful, with loads of paths through the woods, a lake, a bird sanctuary, picnic shelters, monuments, and lots of amenities, as well as a dog park with a separate area for small dogs. I think it would be lovely to bring a picnic lunch, meet up around 11, get comfortable, and let the day go by.

There is also a cool Nature Museum, perfect for kiddos, so I would bring the family too!

So let me know what you think of this plan!! Come ON, NC folk !!(AND anyone else who wants to come!) What do you say??
