Latta Nature Preserve will host the February Charlotte-Area canicross meetup on Sunday, Feb. 22 at 08:00 AM (EST), organizers say, with the venue listed as 6551 Sample Rd, Huntersville, NC 28078. The event appears on Allevents In as "# February Charlotte-Area Canicross Meet up" and is presented as a low-barrier, community run where humans and dogs run as a team, with organizers described as community volunteers and local trail-park stewards.

    The Allevents In listing shows the date and time as "Sun, 22 Feb • 08:00 AM (EST)" and carries the exact venue address 6551 Sample Rd, Huntersville, NC 28078, United States. The listing records "9+ people are Interested" and tags the gathering under meetup, Running Events In Huntersville, and Dog Events In Huntersville. Calendar integration links on the page include Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, iCal Calendar, and Yahoo Calendar for quick adds.

Practical logistics remain limited on the public listing: Ticket Info - To stay informed about ticket information or to know if tickets are not required, click the 'Notify me' button below. The page also offers "Get updates and reminders" and a site prompt reading "Ask AI if this event suits you," signaling that organizers or the platform intend to push updates through the Allevents In interface rather than publishing a full registration packet on the listing.

The listing carries a promotional line captured on the page: "Only get lost while having fun, not on the road!" That tagline appears alongside repeated prompts to save the location for easier access and to explore other Trips & Adventurous Activities in Huntersville and Sports events in Huntersville, indicating the meetup is being marketed through local activity listings rather than a formal racing body or municipal calendar.

Because the capture lists organizers only as community volunteers and local trail-park stewards and provides no named contact, Hyperenergetic Dogs recommends that attendees use the Notify me button on the Allevents In page to confirm any park fees, parking instructions at Sample Rd, required equipment, or dog vaccination and behavior policies before arriving at Latta Nature Preserve on Feb. 22.

Share a photo of your favorite canicross champion at Latta or post in the comments whether Sample Rd parking or trail conditions affect your plan; with only "9+ people are Interested" on the listing, your post could help build this grassroots running-with-dogs community.
