Dog Park

The Village Dog Park was completed on December 31, 2007. The park was created with a fundraiser, Waffles for Woofs, held at The Gambier House by Councilperson Betsy Heer. Various individuals and businesses also made donations which the Village matched. In addition to financial donations, the Dog Park also received donations of benches and tennis balls. Recently, another donation drive raised monies matched by the Village for a water line to the park.

The Dog Park is a great place to bond with your pet and enjoy their romps with the many friends they will meet.

The Dog Park is open from Dawn to Dusk.
