IMG_6221.JPG

Annual Summer Picnic

The 2024 FastFriends Annual Picnic will be Saturday, June 22, 2024 from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm!  

Where is it?

At The Park in La Habra Heights (on Hacienda Blvd.)

This location is referred to as Hacienda Park on Google Maps and offers a wonderful venue for the event – acres of grass, trees, shade, sun, real restrooms (not porta-potties!) and lots of free parking.

Click Here for a map of the location. It is the same place the picnic is always held. Go south on Hacienda from the 60 Fwy or north from Whittier Blvd. Click on the marker for directions.

Here are just a few of the great things planned for this year's picnic

Bid on items in the auction and help support our group

•  A fun day of activities for you, your family & your dog(s) to enjoy

•  Contests and games include: Smallest Greyhound, Longest tail, musical chairs, & hot dog bobbing.

• Enter the Costume Contest, bring a costume for your greyhound (and you, if you want!) and enter the costume contest.

•  Blessing of the hounds. Sign up for the blessing by filling out the form at bottom of the page. 

•  Wonderful food including pulled pork sandwiches, hamburgers, vegi-burgers, hot dogs, roasted corn, salads and dessert.

•  Lots of time to talk to other greyhound lovers - all day long

•  Raffles, prize drawings, & auctions - it could be your lucky day

•  Meet the foster dogs looking for their forever homes.one might be yours

•  Join in the "roooooo-ing" event (canines & humans both can participate!)

HELP! 

To make the picnic a huge success, WE ESPECIALLY NEED SALAD DONATIONS. If time is tight, let your local deli or Costco do the work! (No green salads, please - they tend to wilt.) If you can’t bring a salad then bring a dessert. All donations, large, small, homemade or purchased, will be appreciated! FastFriends supplies serving spoons. A special raffle for a doggie gift basket will be held for salad or dessert donors.
