Planning For This Year's Gathering


Recommended Posts

Well it is that time of the year where we need to begin planning for this year's Gathering at Lake Selmac. Hopefully it is early enough for those wanting to attend to begin making their travel plans. However, we need to get an idea of what would be a good weekend to hold the event.

We are looking at a three month block (June, July or August) to set the annual event. Typically people will arrive on Friday to set up camp, socialize, let the dogs get to know each other and whatever else comes up. Saturday will be the main event for the weekend which will include a potluck BBQ that afternoon and later a migration down to Song Dog Kennel to see the dogs up close, tell more stories whatever else may happen. We need to reserve the picnic area to ensure we have appropriate facilities for the BBQ. I called yesterday and the picnic area is open any Saturday from 20 June to 5 Sep. We want to select a weekend that will allow as many people as possible to come experience this wonderful event.

I would like to lock in a date to reserve the picnic area by February 1st.

Please check your calendars and reply with a primary weekend and, if possible, an alternate weekend that would work. Those who would prefer to send me a private message, feel free to do so. We will look at all the dates, lock in the weekend and hopefully post the date for the 2015 Gathering on or about the 1st of February.

I am coming this year, and pretty open--no restrictions as of now.

From what I have heard- June and July are mosquito season- big time.

That is why we usually scheduled for early August- right Allison?

:( Haven't won the money lottery yet.

Yearly commitment takes all my vacation time until then.

 

Getting to this gathering AND to SDK is definitely on my bucket list!

All summer brings mosquitoes. I think we started the August thing to coincide with pup pick-up, but I would be up for the earlier date. I'm with Clay, nice for a change.

Sri you are absolutely correct. I know last July 4th weekend at the lake was extremely busy and the fireworks will send most dogs scampering off to hide somewhere.

 

I want to thank those that have posted and those who have sent me a private message with their suggestions. I know it has only been a week since the initial post, but I would like to lock in a weekend, as well as reserve the picnic area by February 1st. I am not asking for a RSVP just suggestions for when to set the 2015 Gathering.
