September Activities for Dogs and Families

Braddock Dogs has identified some family friendly events coming up in September that would make good, fun opportunities to tell our community about Braddock Dogs and the Monticello off-leash dog area! If you are able to attend any of these events, please let us know so we can get you some flyers to distribute!

We really need volunteers to drop by each of the nearby Northern VA Regional Water Parks this Saturday, Sept 8th from 12-4pm, to distribute handouts (2-sided), and post a couple copies of the display flyers (one-sided) where people will see them. This is a great event for dogs that love to play in the water and proceeds benefit local rescues! I plan to attend Cameron Run - Great Waves Water Park with my dogs and will post flyers there. Again, flyers are downloadable here: one-sided display flyer or two-sided handout flyer, or let me know via email at braddockdogs@gmail.com if you need a stack of flyers delivered to your door.

Sincerely,

Erin Mays

Braddock Dogs Association, President
