Upcoming Meeting

FIDO is scheduled to meet on Tuesday, October 21st, 2008, at Pavilion #1 located at the East Marion Park in Fairmont, West Virginia. It is the large pavilion located to the right of the entry into the park. The meeting will begin at 7:00 P.M. and be attended by members of MDOG - Morgantown Dog Owners Group. This group has successfully developed one existing dog park called "Stanley's Spot" along Decker's Creek and is nearing the grand opening of a second one at Krepp's Park. Their experience and insight will provide much needed information as we explore the possibilities for such a facility in Marion County.

Please plan to attend and show your interest in promoting a recreation facility for area dogs and dog owners.
