• Samoyed Winter Walk ~ December 18

The Potomac Valley Samoyed Club will hold its Winter Wonderland Walk on the National Mall this Sunday, December 18, at noon. The Sammies and Santa will meet at the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree (West Lawn) at noon.

Come on over! Meet Santa. Plunge your fingers into a Samoyed ruff—the softest, whitest fur you'll ever feel. Get a kiss from Darcy the Dalmatian, the honorary Samoyed. And bring your camera to take pictures of your kids with Santa (for free!)

After hanging out at the Capitol the dogs will walk to the Botanic Gardens, then to the Ellipse across from the White House. Awards will be given for Most Festival Sammy and Most Vocal Sammy.

There should be parking in the lot that lies between Pennsylvania, Constitution, and 1st, NW, next to the reflecting pool.

We're going to have a howling good time! See you there.
