Monthly Maintenance Program
- Due to the high use of the facility, the Parks and Recreation Department implements a monthly rotation of the "Front" and "Rear" pods on the first day of each month.
- For the safety of the dogs and their owners, we are focusing on repairing holes, wash outs, improving turf and making other necessary repairs. Once the repairs are made, users need to remain off the area for a month for the soil to settle and the turf to get re-established.
- The process will rotate throughout the year. There will always be one group of pods open year-round.
- For more details, please view the Annual Maintenance Calendar.
