How exciting!
ok- do we want a weekend (Friday/ Saturday) or sometime during the week?
I still feel more comfortable with having it in the evening-that way the dogs (and people) don't get hot outside.

~or to put a date out there~
How about the 12th- its a Saturday? Is that too soon?

Assuming this turns out well, we could have them regularly.
It would be a great chance for the dogs to spend sometime with other dogs "strangers" and socalize.
