Good News, the town has given us the green light to start preparing for the dog park by removing the old asphalt rink! Our volunteers got together on a beautiful early fall day and started to clear the land around the rink. But we need approximately $10,000 in addition to what we already raised to hire a professional to remove the asphalt in an environmentally safe manner. Help us bring back the green by donating to the dog park.
