Speaker 1: Let's say good morning now to Corky Beach Day organizer
Speaker 1: Kelly maclamore.
Speaker 2: Good morning, Kelly, good morning.
Speaker 1: How are you doing great? So we've got two big
Speaker 1: dog events this weekend. Our Wiggle Waggle Walk for Pasadena
Speaker 1: Humane is on Sunday, and the day before, on Saturday,
Speaker 1: thousands of corkis are descending on Huntington Beach. Tell us
Speaker 1: about so Cal Corgy Beach Day.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right, So Soca Corky Beach Day comes to
Speaker 2: Huntington Beach on Saturday. We have thousands of Corgis, we
Speaker 2: have over forty pet venders, we have Corgi contests all
Speaker 2: day long, food trucks and everything corky. And it's all
Speaker 2: dog friendly, so anybody can come. You don't have to
Speaker 2: have Corky to attend.
Speaker 1: I hear that if you don't have a Corgi, your
Speaker 1: dog becomes an honorary Corgi for the day.
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. And we have a lot of
Speaker 2: honorary Corkies that come, and even people that just don't
Speaker 2: have a Corky and they just love to see all
Speaker 2: those little fluffy butts walking around the beach.
Speaker 1: Okay, so where do all the corkis come from.
Speaker 2: You know, most of them come from obviously so Cal,
Speaker 2: but we have a ton of people that come from
Speaker 2: all over the US. They make road trips to come
Speaker 2: with their dogs and come to Corgy each day. We
Speaker 2: even have people that come from overseas Europe. We've had
Speaker 2: people come from Dubai. I mean, they come from everywhere,
Speaker 2: and I'm we're always surprised that they keep coming. There's
Speaker 2: just there's tons of corky people everywhere.
Speaker 1: Okay, and so what are some of the activities that
Speaker 1: are going on? You mentioned that there's going to be
Speaker 1: food vendors at food trucks and there's going to be
Speaker 1: vendors and that kind of thing. But what are some
Speaker 1: of the things that corkys do. Is it just to
Speaker 1: come and show your you know, share your corgi or
Speaker 1: do you have actual activities for them?
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a whole itinerary planned all day. So
Speaker 2: the main arena area is the hub of all the
Speaker 2: action and that's where we have all of our contests.
Speaker 2: So we have most popular one, of course, costume contests,
Speaker 2: and our theme of Corkybach is Corgabunga USA kind of
Speaker 2: a shout out to Huntington Beach starts to the USA.
Speaker 2: We also have Corky Limbo because it's perfect for the
Speaker 2: little short legs, best Corky butt fluffiess Corgy Loudest Barking
Speaker 2: Corky contest, which is a new one, and that's a
Speaker 2: hit already. And what else do we have? We have
Speaker 2: tons of contests all day long, and it's all at
Speaker 2: the main arena, so okay, that's the heat of the action.
Speaker 2: And then other than that, there's tons of other stuff
Speaker 2: to do as well.
Speaker 1: Okay, and then the Corgi races, So the Corky's race,
Speaker 1: and I'm do they race on the sand?
Speaker 2: They do? We have done that before and we've timed
Speaker 2: them to so we do another event called Corky National
Speaker 2: So the winner of that event goes to compete in
Speaker 2: Corgy Nationals. They win a spot.
Speaker 1: Okay, I bet it's really fun to watch them on
Speaker 1: the sand because as their little legs sink in, you
Speaker 1: probably just see them skimming along the beach.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's pretty funny, all right.
Speaker 1: And so what why do people love corky so much? Kelly?
Speaker 2: I think, I mean, I love Corky's because it feels
Speaker 2: like they're just big dogs and little bodies. They're loyal,
Speaker 2: they're active, very smart, sometimes too smart, but there's just
Speaker 2: a great companion. I'm a quirky lover for life. I'll
Speaker 2: always have a Corky.
Speaker 1: I love that. Okay, So if you want to participate,
Speaker 1: when do things get started on Saturday?
Speaker 2: So ten am to three pm on Saturday. Come to
Speaker 2: Huntington Beach, just two blocks south of the pier. The
Speaker 2: event is free to the public excuse and there's a
Speaker 2: huge parking lot, which is new for us this time.
Speaker 2: We've moved locations, so we have thousands of parking spots.
