I think the chi meet up is a great idea but I don't think that I would be able to make it. Since my husband passed away this year, I am working and taking care of our 6 chi's plus 3 kitties.
Thank you, Eileen and chi kids ________________________________ From: Deanna Corey <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, November 29, 2010 3:00:56 PM Subject: [Chihuahuas] CHI MEET UP!!! What do you all think??? Shanna...anyone...? Has anyone looked into a venue in Las Vegas for a possible meet-up? Shanna did you say your husband works for one of the hotels there? After the holiday season is usually a good time for Vegas deals...things slow down some in late winter if I remember correctly... Maybe Feb or March might be a nice month to try to plan for??? Or should we wait till weather may be nicer...more towards April or May? Once we get a count of how many are really interested we should know how many rooms we would need. Here are some things for us to be thinking about: 1. What month? Winter...spring?? 2. How long...2 nights? 3 nights? 3. How would we feel about doubling up/splitting rooms to lower expenses 4. Searching out dog parks or fenced grassy areas for the dogs to play and us to be able to picnic. 5. Searching out dog friendly restaraunts, fun doggie boutiques/barkeries to visit, etc 6. Whats on our agenda when we meet...fund raising for rescues? shelters? Dogs in need? 7. Maybe we could all think of something to "bring" to share...how to make something...how to do something...maybe a project we could all make or do for our dogs? 8. Adding in a "Clothing swap" where we might bring outfits or toys our guys grew out of or don't like...to swap. 9.OBviously finding a hotel that allows dogs...there just has to be some...I know the Hampton Inn usually does...so we just need to do a search for "Dog Friendly hotels in Vegas". 10. Maybe one night we could have a birthday party for all the dogs that would have a birthday in 2011...which would be everyone LOL!!!! Anyway...lets be thinking about this....should I or someone make up a "interest form" so we could get an idea of what we would all like to do and when? Who could come when? A map of where we all live that we might travel together or help each other get to Vegas?? Let's start brain storming and really make this happen!!!! Sure would be fun and we might actually get something accomplished too...if we can make a plan.
