The Going Home Greyhounds Pittsburgh Greyhound Gathering and Great Global Greyhound Walk is right around the corner.  Be there ... rain or shine!  Pack up the family and the dogs (no small dogs please for their own safety) and head out to the South Park Museum Building for an afternoon filled with fun, auctions and food.  Unless you have a disability, please use the upper lot for parking as the cottage may be in use that day.

Vendors are still welcome.  If you know of any vendors who may be interested, please contact Colleen Smith (412-852-3123) or Brian Hunt (412-818-8147) or email at:  GHGFun...@gmail.com.

A limited number of indoor spaces are still available.  The event is rain or shine and if you choose to be outside, please bring a tent, table and chair.  Vendors must provide their own table/chair if vending inside, and vending space is on a first come/first served basis.  The vending fee is $20.

A successful picnic requires an enormous amount of volunteer help.  Volunteer for a hour or for the day.  Help is needed in the following areas:  Set-up/clean up, GHG sales table, and 50/50.  Please contact Mary Fratangelo (412-310-1453) or Colleen Smith (412-852-3123) or email at:  GHGFun...@gmail.com.

The event is for everyone to socialize, make new friends, and get re-acquainted with old friends.  There is no better way to do this than to participate.  Festivities to include Blessing of the Hounds, GHG sales table, 50/50, nail trimmings, cool down pool for the greys, food, vendors, music, and we can't forget about the auctions.  There are always new and unique items up for grabs.
