This weekend is peak blossom. TIME IS TIME TO REACH THE JEFFERSON BASED ON WHEN AND WHERE YOU FIND PARKING. The tidal basin may not be up for a walk this year so we will do an alternative route to see just as many blossoms. We will gather at the far point of the east Potomac park where there is a large playground at the tip of the island and walk towards the blossoms to reach the Jefferson Memorial at 11:30 am. From the memorial we will keep our traditional path if allowed all the way to the MLK starting around noon. Keep in mind parking and traffic can be a nightmare so we will try to go on the weekend the weather forecast looks best. I am tentatively putting it the same weekend as the 10 Miler since parking turns over as soon as the race ends.Please see cherry blossom festival info https://nationalcherryblossomfestival.org to find maps and event schedules. There are options to buy parking ahead of time so please do so if you aren't willing to walk a good distance from the day of available spots!
******** Notes to Capital Corgi Folks *********
Normal public dog gathering rules apply (puppies must be older than 16 weeks and fully vaccinated, no dogs in heat, no aggressive dogs). Please remember this is a public event in a public place and we cannot control how popular this time and place will be. Please encourage children to ask for permission first to pet and don't be upset if someone declines to let your kids pet. Use common sense. Bring non-retractable leashes and lots of poop bags/water as there are not a lot of facilities and the ones available will be crowded with lines to enter once you get out onto the Tidal Basin.
RSVP the number of CORGIS attending here on either Meetup Ap or Facebook group event page to avoid double counting.
