Unscheduled Sunday Walk - Sunday, March 23

Greetings Willamette Valley Greyhound Lovers!

 

Please join Lula, Keith, Jake, Elliott and Ford (and their people) at Bald Hill Park in Corvallis for an unscheduled Greyhound walk this Sunday at 1:30.  “Ford” is being fostered by Rachel and Eddy Ostrander and is going to be visited by his new “forever” family on Sunday and, since Rachel and Eddy live so close to Bald Hill Park, we thought we’d have a “get acquainted” walk for Ford and his new family and welcome them all to the WVGL!

 

We’ll meet at the Benton County Fairgounds parking lot at 1:30.  If you have time to join us, please do!

 

 

Here’s a link to the map.
