Dog Park Glow Up

***Please note that using this Facebook Event page to indicate you are going does not mean you are registered for the event. You must register by following the directions below.***

Community members are invited to help give the Messenger Marsh Dog Park a “glow up.” Permit holders are encouraged to attend without their pups because the focus is on improving the preserve. We will spread woodchips around trees adjacent to the park, remove suckers from tree trunks, fill divots with dirt in the mowed areas and trim vegetation along the fence line. All tools and supplies will be provided. Not only will this opportunity improve the aesthetics of Messenger Marsh, it will also promote healthy tree growth and boost park safety. Future opportunities at this and other parks are in the works.

Fee: Free!
Age: Ages 18 and older.

Registration is required by completing this online form(Opens in a new window).

We will be working on both paved and natural surfaces with uneven terrain. Sturdy shoes with socks are recommended. Water will be available to refill bottles. Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service to participate in this program should submit a request online ( https://www.reconnectwithnature.org/americans-with-disabilities-act-information/request-accommodation-inclusion-service/) no later than 48 hours before the program.
