Is anyone going to the Meet and Greet at Ceiner Woods Ford in K-ville on Saturday? I'll be there with Pandy. I hope to see some of you out there.

It was nice to meet you on Saturday.

We had a pretty good crowd supporting GFNC, didn't we?

The dealership was packed too. Bernard was a little overwhelmed at first, but eventually his tail came untucked.

It was nice to meet you too. I had a great time. It sure was packed on Saturday. I know what you mean about Bernard. Pandy was a little unsure in the beginning but i think she was doing ok by the end. Hopefully some visits to the kennel ( and some adoptions will come from it). Looking forward to the next one! See you there!

any ideas when the next meet & greet is? i would love to go to one, even tho my girl can be shy (she may be okay with other greys around)

We had a Meet and Greet last Sunday at Petsmart and had about 13 dogs.
Things like that are usually posted on the Triad Greys Yahoo group.
You are more than welcome to join it if you want to. It is mainly to announce things in the Greensboro and surrounding area and anyone can join it. It isn't used all that much, but we do make some announcements of things coming up or get a discussion going once in a while.

i would love to go to the meet & greet at backstreets! my dog tends to be shy, but hopefully surrounded by other greys and not staying too long may work.

Hi Priscilla
Gail Partington is organizing the Backstreets stuff for GFNC. If you want me to give her your name, please pm your e-maill address to me and I'll get it to her.
You might also want to do the M&G that will be at the Earthfare in Sept. Time and date will be posted on our website.
You only have to stay as long as you want.

does anyone have any details about the meet & greet this coming tuesday?

Hi everyone!


I wanted to let you know that I received "official" word that our meet and greet on Tuesday, September 18th can be set up in the parking lot adjacent to Battleground Avenue and across from the Backstreets Restaurant. There was some debate over who managed the parking lot - once he was approached and asked he gave it permission. I think the man deserves a t-shirt from us as a thank you! This puts us in a place of terrific visibility of a ton of passersby.

I am attaching the calendar of events again for any of you who may not have heard about this event.-see below

Larry and I will be setting up one of our open house tents the morning of the event.
I have volunteers for the 12 - 2:00pm timeframe on the 18th and they are:
Dan Griffin
Lory Hartman
Jack and Shirley Skelton
(I will be there too)
If anyone else would like to join, the more the merrier.

I need volunteers for the 5:00 - 7:30PM meet and greet. So far it is just Larry and I with our 3 hounds. I know many of you are headed to BBH so if you will forward this out to others it would be great. We only need more people so if you can come for even a short while it will help.

Please send me an email with your availability and I will communicate our final meet and greet schedule!
