It's the "as official as it gets" Pacific Northwest Corgi Picnic, including a silent auction to benefit Corgi Aid.

AUCTION info:

  • Items to Donate? - contact Jean Clements-Macak (jcmacak at mac.com) who has once again graciously offered to coordinate the auction.
  • Bring Money - donations are nice, but the point is to raise money, and that means bidding on and purchasing those donated items at the picnic. Please come prepared to be generous!

A big thanks to my wife Kathy for working hard for perhaps the most organized picnic ever Smile. And to Linda Taylor for helping out, and Jean Clements-Macak for running the silent auction again this year.

It's been a long, cold, wet and often white winter. The cure: some serious frapping!

We have lots of Corgis and Corgi owners in the area, and keep stumbling upon more all the time.

Here's a list of discussion and meetup groups that I'm aware of that have particular relevance to the Pacific Northwest:

2008 Corgi Picnic Panorama

What a great time we had ... estimate of well over 40 Corgis and over 50 people made this perhaps the largest Pacific Northwest Corgi Picnic ever. And the weather cooperated perfectly - the sun came out after a cool morning for near-perfect conditions making for a great get-together.

A few of the photos I took are here on the Corgi-L photo Gallery (also re-posited on my Flickr photostream). In particular the panorama of 5 photos stitched together for an over 180 degree view above will give you a bit of a sense of what the fuss is all about. (Be sure to click through to full size :-).

I want to thank everyone who came - it was a good time. I also want to thank Jean Clements-Macak for organizing the silent auction. We raised over $626 for CorgiAid, another record!

Thanks again to all, and see you next year!
