Thank you - Delamere Walk
I just wanted to say a huge "thank you" to Jan and Debby for organising the Schnauzerfest at Delamere Forest yesterday. It was our first group walk and i think not the last! We met lots of new hooman and doggy friends and hope to stay in touch. I know there was talk of there being more North West walks but as i am not on FB, please keep the forum updated too! Great time had by all and Ollie slept very well last night....didn't even move out of his basket this morning when i came downstairs. Thank you again!

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
It looked like a terrific walk and venue from the photos, really did. There are a few people here who never do facebook and I'm sure you'll hear of events happening in your neck of the woods, the networks and connections that Schnauzerfest has made has been another really pleasing side to the whole weekend.

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
I second that Lou! Amazing turnout! Lovely people, lovely dogs, all behaving well (dogs and wranglers!) considering how many of us there were! Archie slept all the way home, not a peep. I hope we do it again, I think it will happen! Some pics to be going on with...! Not very good, but you get the general idea!

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
Hi all ,
This is Jan I've been directed here by a good friend. Now I see why .
Your comments are lovely thank you. No thanks are needed , it was a pleasure. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that day would be the success it was. Each & everyone of us , humans & schnauzers , had a fabulous day. The attendance was outstanding. I have everyone there that day to thank , your enthusiasm & genorisity overwhelming. Without you all the day wouldn't have been possible.
Not one negative word, spat or disappearing act .. fantastic. All of you requesting when the next walk is , will I do another one , a demand for more regular walks. Non of which I was expecting but would love more days like Delamere. My thanks goes to you. I'm so pleased the charity did so well.
I'm new on here &:need to find my way around,please bear with me a little while.
We've put some plans in place to hopefully cater for the demands , we set up a group on Facebook. I can see from your comments that several of you aren't facebook users . That's no problem , if & when , looking more like when than if , there are any details of the next walk .. I will certainly update you on here .
My thanks again for a day to remember , looking forward to it being repeated .... We are also hoping to continue to raise funds when possible for DBARC ... Jan x

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
Just to let you know in the few hours since I posted , we've decided on a venue for our next venue.
The group we set up is to plan more regular walks at different venue's, all over the North West. It's very early days but is proving very popular already.
We are hoping for one a month but will have to see how things go . We're patient & enthusiastic , not expecting miracles but prepared to give things a go.
The walks may not be the size of Delamere. You can pick & choose which walks you wish to attend. No one is expected to attend them all .
We hope to carry on raising funds for DBARC & are looking into a few ideas we have to help in that area ... eg , many have asked could we possibly do a calendar. Using pictures taken at Delamere , a momento of the great day that we had.
To get the ball rolling we are planning a walk at Roydon Park ; Wirral .. 16 November at 11am .
I will keep you updated and get postcodes & directions etc , to you all very soon . Jan

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
It's brilliant how the weekend has spawned so many new ideas and collective enthusiasm for walking together I'm going to post in a day or so on the Schnauzerfest FB page how I see it being used now, and how it can support fundraising events. It's great that DBARC will be continuing in people's activities, however large or small, it is all going to help, and over the winter, life in rescues tends to get harder, so this is all goodBramble 05 wrote:

Message from Jan (Bramble05)
The venue for our walk has changed from Royden Park to Wirral Country Park , Station Road , Thurstaston. We felt , as the turn out is many more than expected , it's better to be safe than sorry . Royden Park is lovely but easy for a group walk to get lost . 16 November at 11am .

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
Hi all ,
Looking forward to our 1st walk. I took a stroll with a friend in Wirral Country Park yesterday , perfect for a group Walk . I was with a friend with my girls and her four Schnauzers , was stopped by several who showed interest in joining the walk.
Our group had over 100 people join in a week , over 30 have accepted to join our walk. That's the amount who accepted to join Delamere , as you know there were many more.
Had a nice surprise on Saturday when two Schnauzerfest bandana's arrived for my girls
If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask. It would be of help to us if you let us know of any intention to join this walk.
We hope to do one a month , depending on the interest we get . Are taking a break for December due to Christmas.
Our walks will be at different venues all over the North West . I will let you know of our next venue once decided.
Hope to see some of there , if not on our 1st walk , then a future one .

Hi Jan,
We intend to come to the Wirral walk all being well. We are not on FB so will rely on this forum for any communications about this walk or any future ones. Thanks for doing this, Delamere was great and it is brilliant that you are doing more. As first time Schnauzer (and dog!) owners it is lovely for us to come and share experiences and expertise of others as well as Ollie having a great time. If for any reason we can't make it, we will definitely look out for future ones. I will try and source some good venues for Stockport/South Manchester area.
Thanks again, Lou

Re: Thank you - Delamere Walk
Me again ,
The postcode you need of planning to attend the Wirral Walk is CH61 0UN.
The Country Park is well sign posted . Has a cafe & toilets at the visitors centre.
If you try the following link , it should take you to an event page where you can join the walk...
https:/www.facebook.com/events/1564399170450755/
Non Facebook users should be able to see the page as it's a public group .
Don't worry if it does work , you can still state your intention of wanting to join the walk on this page .
I'm here to keep you all updated.
