WHO

Initially we were three neighbors talking; now we are a community.

As taxpayers we feel an off-leash dog park is a legitimate recreational activity and therefore should be available in our community.

VISION

A large 20-30 acre fenced, off-leash dog park where owners can meet, talk and walk with each other while watching their dogs safely run and play.

PLAN

Partner with governmental agency to find the area for the park. Steward the development and maintenance of the park. Promote responsible pet ownership by facilitation and promotion of classes to include canine health topics including first aid; canine training including good citizen, obedience; child and canine safety; and emergency preparedness.
