East Windsor Barktoberfest

Come have a dog gone good time at the East Windsor Barktoberfest on Saturday October 6th from 11am – 4pm at East Windsor Park, 27 Reservoir Ave. Enjoy a family friendly day for you and your furry friend. 

Admission is free and the event will be held rain or shine.  200 give away bags will be handed out.  Visit our vendors and adoption groups.  Ellington Center Animal Clinic will be sponsoring a rabies/microchip clinic from 12 – 3pm for an extra fee. 

Showcase For Dogs will be starting off the demonstrations with a rally/obedience demo at noon.  There will be a children’s book reading by East Windsor native Theresa McCormick Pelham author of “Roxy’s Forever Home” at 1pm. 

Following the book reading there will be dog themed contests followed by more K9 demonstrations.  Of course don’t leave without treating your dog to the very popular all-day swim in our reservoir.  Swim pass is $10 per dog. Dogs must be licensed and respond to voice command.  

All money raised will support the maintenance and improvements at the East Windsor Dog Park.  Bring a pet food donation to help out our local food pantry.  Sponsor and vendor opportunities are still available.  For more information please visit our website at www.freewebs.com/ewdogpark.

Politicians are not CEOs. Elected officials are not CEOs. The comparison is not appropriate, butRead More it does fit with Mr. Morici's misplaced CEO worship. The criticisms may be valid, but they must be examined as political or legal criticisms. The government as a business comparison only increases the power of the corporate state. I also note that Mr. Morici's credo which he attributes to President Obama, "We’ll do as we please, stop us if you can" is a very accurate portrayal of predatory capitalism.

Maria, your dismissive and divisive 'analysis' ignores the fact that POTUS is anRead More "executive" position, also "Commander-in-Chief" of the military! O had exactly ZERO "executive" experience, which--along with his anti-business and anti-America views--explains his failures. Mr. Morici's assessment of O's job performance is perfectly pragmatic and relevant, while your doting worship of the "Agitator-in-Chief" is rather pathetic, as well as being irrelevant.

The author of the article quoted endlessly above is Peter Morici, a Professor of InternationalRead More Business at the University of Maryland. I suppose he is to be forgiven if he sees everything through a business lens, after all it has given him a very comfortable livelihood for decades. But it is still a faulty lens on this topic and he should know better.
