The Big One ! Greyhound Walks NYD Walk, Chelmsford

[Deleted]

This has become our flagship walk of the year when people travel some distance to join in ... we invite all greyhound walkers to celebrate a new year with greyhounds. Last year we had 207 greyhounds walking and an innocent Hylands Park walker thought he'd found the G Festival





This year we're being joined by the Mayor and Mayoress of Chelmsford, so hopefully lots of good publicity
