ANNOUNCING: The Pet Talk Memorial Picnic Grove at the Findlay Dog Park

[Cinder & Smoke]

Heck, if it were up to you, you'd let the dogs swim in the resevoir. YUP!

I myself was in agreement that it should be included as a Pet Memorial for us,
not just a tribute to 2 dogs.
We've tried that route, the park is going to run out of room for trees and pic-nic benches!!!

Now, if the head dipstick (Tim- not you ) doesn't want us to put our names on them ...
is there somewhere ELSE we can attempt it?

FOR EXAMPLE:
The fairgrounds in Hardin County allows ... benches.
What about the cemetery where Rob is buried?
The Humane Society?

I'm SURE we could find a charity in the County that would take our money and let us
put up almost anything with our name(s) on it.
But I'd MUCH rather do something in the DOG Park - that I can see and use.

Several of "us" like the idea of Two Trees and the Picnic Table ...
"The Pet Talk Memorial Picnic Grove".
If Angus, Bowser, or Sherman are to be "named" - the Moms & Dads can purchase a Memorial Plaque to be placed upon the Memorial Board.

It's not that Mr. Timmy "doesn't want" our Pets' Names on a Memorial -
he just can't devote a lot of Staff time to getting it done.

We could try to locate a Trophy Shop in Findlay that might agree to work with the Parks
and handle the ordering processing, engraving, and installing of future plaques on the board.
Dunno if that would *fly* with Parks; but it's worth asking. The Price of a Individual Plaque would
have to cover the Trophy Shop costs and profit, PLUS a reasonable Donation
that would be banked into the Dog Park Fund for future improvements.

Two places we could possibly mount the Memorial Baord would be ON the center dividing fence;
OR - On the BACK Side of the new Bulletin Board.
On the Back of the BB would have advantages - bigger Memorial Board possible, AND the BB ROOF would protect the new Memorial Board somewhat.

We'll be hard pressed to get ANY of the details finalized before September 2nd; and
late August is a little too early (HOT) to be transplanting trees.

Do we want to "DO IT" later in the Fall; or just do it between now and next Memorial Day -
with a dedication at the Memorial Day 2008 Gathurin?

Next comment, your turn ...

I've edited my post above to say this.......
I myself was in agreement that it should be included as a Pet Memorial for us not just a tribute to 2 dogs. (and yes I loved both of them very much)
