The last
Saturday of every month is project day. Starting at 8:00am,
volunteers use this day to clean the park grounds, pick up trash,
clean trash cans and pull weeds, all in an effort to keep our
park a safe and beautiful place for our best friends to play.
If you would like to volunteer, just show up and pitch in. Your
efforts will be greatly appreciated.
The Best
Friends Dog Park is currently in the processes of obtaining
a 501-3c tax status and becoming a non-profit organization by
the end of the year.
