Victorian Days Meet & Greet, Belvidere, NJ



Please join us for a Meet & Greet on Saturday, September 11th during Belvidere's 23rd Annual Victorian Days.

We "set up camp" at Nancy's house on Oxford Street in the little town of Belvidere, NJ about a block off the town Green during the hours from 10:00 to 5:00. We take turns walking our dogs around the perimeter of the green where there is pedestrian traffic only, some of our dogs wear GFNJ donation coats and sport replica Victorian hats (we have a fabulous collection for males & female dogs to share), and let everyone meet our wonderful hounds. Then we relax and chat with passers-by on the sidewalk while we sit on the small lawn or front porch of the house. We "dog-sit" for each other if needed and take turns checking out the craft vendors, amazing classic & antique car show, fabulous food vendors, etc.

Belvidere has been doing this for 23 years so there's lots to see and do. Dogs get a chance to rest off leash in the shady fenced back yard or on the front porch, and can meet the public only at the house where it is quieter, if they are not comfortable with the crowds around the green. This is a greyt day because you aren't attached to a leash for hours standing in one place, which means it isn't very tiring or stressful - it really IS fun!

Call or email Nancy Barnett (908) 310-9130, or e-mail nancy_barnett@merck.com with questions or if you plan to attend, so we can make sure we have volunteers available both morning and afternoon. Hope to see you there!
