Oakhurst “Dogtoberfest” This Sunday Oct 4th!
Decatur Metro | October 2, 2009 | 1:21 pmA couple people have alerted me to some sort of dog-and-drink event in Oakhurst this weekend, but Decatur Active Living’s Dan Magee gets the credit since he sent me all the details and a cartoon of a drinking dog, all in one glorious email.
Does drinking with your dog constitute “Active Living”? I’m hoping so.
Oakhurst’s 1st Annual Dogtoberfest!
- DATE: Sunday, October 4
- TIME: 2PM – 6PM
- LOCATION: The Solarium (321 West Hill St., Decatur GA 30030)
