<DIV>I just want to make sure you get this event on your social calendar. The BROOD Ramble will be on May 30th in Thurmont, MD at Fido's Friend. We will definitely have a NO RAIN stomp this year. The theme is Tour de Basset (like Tour de France) - you know, bassets are French, LOL. Every basset finishing the walk will receive a yellow winner's bandana. Of course there will be games, contests, agility, a raffle, auctioning of great basset crap, and lots of fun for everyone.</DIV>
