RACE PRACTICE AND ANNUAL COSTUME CONTEST

Costume Contest

Sunday, October 23, 2010
Kearny Mesa Park and Recreation

Our monthly race practice will be held on October 23rd starting at 8:00am.

Well, it's that time again folks to start designing those great costumes for your Whippets. We'll be holding our monthly race practice on October 23 followed by our costume contest and games. We're announcing this a month early to give you plenty of time to get creative. This is always a fun event and the dogs seem to put up with our foolishness every year . There will prizes for every participant and special prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. So, get those thinking caps on and see what crazy costumes you can come up with. We'll send another reminder of the October practice after October 1st.

All members are invited.
