Kendal Goes To The Dogs

Dog Museum.jpg

The Trips Committee has come up with an outstanding new trip which will give us something to bark about.

On Wednesday, March 13, there will be an excursion to the Museum of the Dog, in N.Y.C.

Residents will be able to visit this new museum that opened Feb 8th with a large, beautiful collection of dog art.

It is owned by the American Kennel Club (AKC). Its collection includes paintings, sculptures, figurines and posters of movie stars like Lassie; a 2,000 year-old paw print; a 30-million-year-old dog fossil; plus interactive features like “Find My Match” (the dog breed that looks most like you), “Meet the Breeds” and digital displays; library and shop.

No dog whistles here. In order to sign up, you’ll have to do so in the Activities Alcove. That’s the leash you can do.

BTW - The Feb. 20 trip to the NY Historical Society has been rescheduled for Feb. 27.

Space is still available and/or a short wait list for the March 6 trip to the American Museum of Natural History and the March 20 trip to the Bruce Museum in Greenwich.

Questions? Speak to the Trips Committee Chair Jan Myers.
