The venue for Dog Mart (12400 Herndon Road, Spotsylvania CH, VA) is in its final stages of preparation. The entrance to the Dog Mart venue is on the crest of a hill and if you are coming north on Herndon Road from Brock Road, the entrance to the property will be a left turn. Be cautious of oncoming traffic heading south. The speed limit is 45 mph, but, unfortunately, speed limit signs are often considered advisory by many. People exceed the speed limit, and it is dangerous so be careful. We hope to see you on Saturday at 9:30 a.m. when the public can enter the property. Upon entry, drive slowly all the way to the shelter tent where an attendant will collect a $5 per car parking fee. You may use a credit card for a 3% surcharge. You will be directed to a parking area by parking attendants. Bring a lawn chair if you intend to sit outside. There is limited seating inside for eating. The photo above is what you’ll see if you are entering the T intersection from the south.
