As we are already halfway through March, we are really needing to get the site area cleared. David and Steve walked the site this past Saturday to determine what needed to be done. They began work clearing the area with help from a great bunch of MCPARC volunteers. Now we really need help from our FIDO members.
Please look ahead on your March and early April calendars - every Saturday morning that it doesn't rain will be an opportunity to help. The outlook is good for a nice day this Saturday, March 21st - we will begin at 9AM. Also, David and I will be at the park tomorrow, Wednesday night, beginning at 5:30 P.M. until dark. If you can come for a couple of hours or only one, please plan to help out. We have put in a lot of hours in planning for our dog park; let's be sure to put in the sweat equity as well.
The only thing you have to have when coming out to help at the site is a thick pair of gloves. If you own a chainsaw, weedeater with blades, or scythe please bring it along.
If you could let me know when you plan to help, it would be great to know who to expect. Thanks for considering putting in a little time for our dogs.

How do you get to this park and where do you make a donation?
I'm really not anonymous, I just don't have a google/blogger account. Ernie would like to come for a play date and I'm interested in helping. (:
We would love to have Ernie come and play once we get the park ready! If you would like to be on our e-mail list, send me your name and e-mail address as kellyjogarcia@yahoo.com
I have added donation information and directions FYI!
