Here's what Parks has just (I think within the last couple days)
*snuck* onto the Park District web site:

K-9 Field of Dreams receives updates
New restriction added to dog users
Upgrades are coming to the K-9 Field of Dreams Dog Park at Riverbend Recreation Area
beginning Monday, August 24. A local contractor will begin installing tile drainage
to the Dog Park at Riverbend to help resolve some drainage issues. The drainage project
is expected to last a week or up to 10 days, depending on weather issues.
During this time, the entire Dog Park area will be closed to all users.

After drenching has been completed, the west portion of the Dog Park will be shut down
and re-seeded leaving only the east portion open for users. Users should be aware
that a small area of grass will be disturbed, due to trenching, but straw will be used
to cover the area. Water will still be available for dogs on the east side.

The west side will remain closed until spring/summer 2010 or till further notice by HPD
to allow re-seeded grass an opportunity to re-establish. The east side will be re-seeded
and shut down after the west side has been re-opened.

After the project has been completed, all dog owners will be restricted to one (1) dog
during each visit, due to the reduction in the size of the Dog Park area.
This restriction of one (1) dog per owner will continue after the completion.

Dog owners are reminded that all dogs need to be kept on a leash, not longer than 6 feet,
while in all other public areas of the parks and dog waste bags are available
for clean-up at dispensers located throughout the park areas, and should be used.

Upgrades to the Dog Park are being funded in part by the Hancock Parks Foundation.
Additional donations and volunteers welcome.
Any further information required can be obtained at the HPD office located at
1424 East Main Cross St., Findlay, OH 45840 or by calling 419-425-7275.

I'd reall like to know if these "New Rules" are from a Board Action;
or a Staff Wild Idea gone amuck.



Next PTer to the Park ---
Please look closely at the posted "Rules" e-mail ...
