Throughout the year in various
parts of the country, "corgi picnics" are held. Those that
benefit CorgiAid (as a fundraiser) will be listed here according to
date and location. Please check back periodically for
information on the picnic closest to you.
Corgi picnics usually feature fun
(games and contests), food (what the corgis and most humans like the
very best!) and fundraising. So if you have never attended
one, think about helping out CorgiAid and having a wonderful
day!
Oh, yes, you don't need a corgi
to attend. All other dogs/pets are designated Honorary Corgis
for the day!
Please note that
