2011 Romar Romp
Saturday September 10, 2011 Oakland Lion's Park, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm This will be a bitter sweet Romp this year as Roland will not be physically with us but I'm sure he will be there in spirit. For those of you that I missed contacting please forgive me but I'm sure you understand.
Roland had made these arrangements before he passed away and you all know that it was the highlight of his year to get together with all of his grandpuppies and you. This is the same location as last year and I'm sure everyone who attended loved the change. This place comes complete with washrooms and a covered picnic area We are holding the cost at $10.00 per adult, kids under 18 free, which like the last time includes your hot dogs, hamburgs, chips and drinks Meet old friends and make new friends and of course we have the costume contest as always Something New * Lisa has to leave at noon* Nails by Lisa - $10.00 per dog not the usual nail clipping, Lisa will be filing the nails so they are nice and smooth. Sue will not be available for the Romp Photograpy by Sue - $15.00 for electronic delivery and $30.00 for a print Sue is a very talented photographer who has taking the action shots at this years Bearded Collie National Speciality. Special arrangements can be made with Sue if you would like something unique . Please RSVP romarbeardies@yahoo.com by Sept 1 at the latest so I can get all the food in and give Lisa and Sue an idea of the number of people interested Directions:
For those coming from the east or west : Get on the 403 either from the QEW at Burlington or from the 401 at Woodstock and look for " Rest Acres Road" just west of Brantford Turn south on "Rest Acres Road " ( also called hwy 24 South) and drive about 16 km south to a traffic light at Scotland. This is the Oakland Road Turn left and go about 3km to Oakland. At the flashing light in Oakland turn right and proceed to the bottom of the hill and you will see the Park on your right side. Turn right and and drive to the entrance of the Park. Park on either side of the road in the Park which leads to the covered picnic area. If that area is full, park on the Park side of the road leading into the Park. For those coming from north of Brantford drive south to the 403, either using hwy 6 or south on hwy 24 North or your favourite way to get to Brantford. Then follow the directions above. For those coming from the south, all I can say is to look at your road map and determine whether you are better off getting to Brantford and then to Oakland or driving to Oakland overland directly. |
