Checked on a couple possible opportunities this week.  Will now be gone
till after memorial day but am looking for feed back and interest in
participation.  Don't want to be a lonely only sitting a booth somewhere
whilst everyone else is off showing. lol  Seriously looking for input and
what would be the most fun reach the most number of JQP and be the least
amount of work for us. 

We can attend the CAHS dog walk on Sept 29 the vendor tables are $150 for
the day which is usually like 9 to 2ish with set up and take down major
problem is we could only have 2 dogs at the booth. So no real opportunity
to parade the breeds or promote purebred dogs beyond the performance
sports and training? Not really the venue for promoting responsible
breeding even though that would be the means to the end of the shelter
population problems. If we want to do this I can set everything up but
would not be able to attend that day.

Another possibility is the Charlotte Frontier Day parade on Sept 8th we
could walk dogs in the parade to display breeds and pass out info in
route there are thousands in attendance. Website:
www.charlottefrontierdays.com 
http://www.charlottefrontierdays.com/schedule06.php  and or arrange to do
something like a community dog show, Pet contests, parade of breeds and
demos  another time during the weekend?

Any other ideas out there on places to contact?
