Clean Up Days

Dog Park Clean Up Days are usually scheduled in Spring and Fall. These seasonal clean ups often involve big jobs like removing trees, pruning shrubs or branches, installing new benches, mending fencing, painting or moving lime screenings. Not able to do physical work? We need people who are able to check in the work crew, sign up visitors for our Newsletter and chat with them about the dog park at our information table. Lots of hands are needed.
