For some reason the dogpark website is not working but below tells a little about it and has some pictures.

Thats awesome! We are moving back to Clemson in May. Back when Laney was a pup I always took her to a field at CU, but Slade is a runner, so it will be great to have a fenced in area to take him, even if it is a bit of a drive.

Depending on when the meetup is Slade and I might come. We have family in the Charlotte area, but anywhere in NC or SC would probably be okay.

Yeaaaa! Count me and Mascot in, I only have 1, and he's my 1st, but we want to go for sure... and I am a stay at home mom, so any date any place.... we are there!!!! YEEEAAAAA!

The only time I can't make it would be the week of the 16-23 of april, as I'm flying home to Illinois..maybe a few of us could car pool from here..Charlotte is 2 1/2 - 3 hours depending on where in Charlotte..

Carpooling would be great! Anything to save on gas money, esp if it gets up too $4 like they were talking about on TV this morning!

It's still right around $3/gallon here right now..the one station dropped from $2.95-$2.93 the other day, but, now, I haven't been back that way in a few days, so don't know what it is now

Buddy-licious · 03-06-2008, 07:11 AM

Ok...there is a huge wonderful doggie park in Charlotte called Davies Park.

I want to mention an event held each year at Davies Park called, "Barks in the Park" that is sooooo much fun. Perhaps we could plan out meet up around this event. (April 26th) I went last year with my son & Buddy and we loved it!!!! So many dog lovers there!!! The event is free!!! Very crowded but fun!!
This is the link: (scroll to the bottom to see pictures from last year)

Below are a couple of pictures that I took.

Even if we did not plan to meet the weekend of the Barks in the Park....Davies Park is a great leash free park in a wonderful area of Charlotte.

CocoChanelsMama · 03-09-2008, 07:02 AM

Count me in. I would love to meet some YT members. Charlotte will be good for me but anywhere in SC is okay too.

Hey all---
Thanks for bumping this. Anyone have a particular weekend(s) that will/will not work for them??? I think we need to like pick three options and then just do a poll and go with the most popular. Anyone agree???
