FIDO's Backyard

Our dog park's name is official: "FIDO's Backyard"

We are preparing for our Grand Opening Celebration to be held on Sunday, May 30th. Gates will open to the park at noon with a special ribbon cutting ceremony at 4:00 P.M.

We have scheduled a work day for Saturday, May 22nd, to get the area ready! MCPARC workers will be there around 7:30 or 8:00 A.M. Come for the morning or just sleep in and come for a little bit to help out.

Hope to see you Saturday!
