Washington, DC Metro Area Basenji Meetup
-
While I take my own pack to a small off-leash park in DC every weekend morning about 10am, we can plan Meetup playdates anywhere in the region. If folks know of a nice completely enclosed off-leash park in your area, please let me know and we'll move the location around each month to make it easier for more people to participate without having to drive quite as far every time.

If you all ever want to meet up at Baron Cameron – or there's one in Sterling but I can't remember the name of it... Let me know. We have a lot of plans this fall so the more heads up, the better. But I'd love to meet up again- I just adore seeing all the dogs together.

Where will it be this Saturday because Dallas & I are definitely coming! :)

Here's a link to the park information (scroll down, it's item 13):
http://www.leesburgva.gov/index.aspx?page=111
Olde Izaak Walton Park
850 Davis Court, SE 20175
(21 acres) The park, once owned by the Izaak Walton League, includes a 3 ? acre
pond, stream, trails, and a 7500 square foot building, which is available for rentals
An off leash three quarter acre dog park has recently been completed at the park. Future plans may include passive uses such as a nature center, fishing pier, picnic facilities, and a playground.
Would LOVE to have the 'senji's get together out our way at some point!! :)

Hi Folks,
Sorry, but I don't check the Forums here too often these days … too much else going on. But, yes, the Metro Area Basenji Meetup Group is still active. I usually post information via the meetup website (http://www.meetup.com/basenjis-DC/). We haven't organized a large meetup yet this year, but I'm happy to do so, and as I mentioned before, we are willing to move the location around the area. I can send out a post to the group re: the 3/4 acre dog park in Leesburg to see if we can get up some interest to arrange a meetup there. If there are other dog parks around the area, feel free to pass along that info as well to me (via the meetup page would be best). We should definitely try to arrange a big group outing while we have good weather.

Do you guys still meet up in the DC area? We just moved to Alexandria a few months ago and I'd love to join you all!

We do still meet up in Arlington, VA at the Shirlington Dog Park. You can keep up with our group on Meetup.org.
