HEY! ANYONE UP FOR A REUNION???
If I can get just 5 families who will guarantee they will come,
I will put it on! Read details below these photos.
If you would like to attend, but the timing is bad for you, please email me with
a better date for you. If enough folks have a problem with my dates, it can be moved. I have been having it the
end of March, beginning of April because the weather is so nice at that time of year, but the turnout is bad due to Easter,
St. Patrick's day, and other reasons. I'm willing to work with you all to get you here! Just let me know when is a good month
for you. I'm really getting anxious to see my kids again!!!
Send me some ideas folks!
I can post all ideas here and everyone can add input and ideas, dates, times
and locations!
PLEASE!
Some feedback and ideas from everyone!!!
Idea from me:
(I prefer cooler months over hotter ones)
I'm sorry, but due to heavy spamming,
I have had to disable the sign up link that was below. I have been recieving heavy spam from all the spam creeps
in the world through this link. It was nice while it lasted, but again, the good must suffer for the indescretions of the
bad. I'm sorry, again. If you wish to register for the reunion, please just send me an email or call me and I'll get you on
the attendance list.
Thanks. Deb

| This was taken at our 1st Dogge Reunion. |

| Taken at Gemini Springs in DeBary Florida. Not a bad turn out for our first! |
| This is taken at Gemini Springs at our 2nd Reunion |
|
| These are MOST of the families that attended. Some had already left, and others were still to come. |
Our 1st and 2nd Dogge Reunions
went well and were so much fun!!!
However, our 3rd Annual Reunion was a major flop with
only two families attending...one being my daughter from Georgia!
If you are interested in having a reunion this year, please
contact me and let me know. If I get enough response, I will plan for our 4th Reunion. It may be at the new dog park in DeLand
this year. I haven't decided yet.
Please sign in if you are interested in attending the reunion
and let me know the best date for you. Majority will rule.
The cost to me averages around $300 per reunion. If no one
comes, I cannot afford to continue having them. Come on people! This is a great chance to visit your dog's littermates and
talk about all of the special things your dog does and show how smart they are! Also, this is my chance to see how my "kids"
are doing. Please let me hear from you!
Last year I mailed out over 150 invitations with RSVP cards
enclosed. I only received 8 of them back! Only one of the persons who said they would come, did. I must pay for the invitations,
the postage, the condiments, paper goods and food. I must pay to reserve the park for us. This all costs money and is planned
for a large group. I cannot continue to put out this much expense and effort if no one is going to attend. I will gladly put
on the reunion if I have at least 5 families who will GUARANTEE that they will show up.
I know that some of you live a long way from here. Would
you rather have a reunion every OTHER year, or every 5 years or something, rather than yearly?
I usually plan the reunions for the last week of March or
first week in April. That is when the weather is the most temperate, and has worked well so far. I have to have a couple of
months notice to reserve the pavillion. I have not reserved it yet this year. If you are interested in coming, please contact
me soon so that I can reserve it for us.
Talk to me! I need feedback on this!
We are all members of the same family! We all own border
collies, and we all LOVE border collies!
Contact me! I really want to hear from you all!
