THE 2013 D.O.G.G.S. DAZE OF AUGUST FUNDRAISER IS COMING!!
AND WE NEED YOUR HELP!!
If you and your dog enjoy the Granby D.O.G.G.S. Park and would like to help with this year's fundraiser, please join us on Wednesday, June 19th at 6:30pm at the Granby Senior Center.  We need volunteers to help with the organization and planning in advance of the event and we need lots of volunteers to help out on August 25th. If you're interested in getting more involved in keeping your dog's favorite park open to the public, come to this meeting and find out how you can help!  More info about the event will be posted after the June 19th meeting.

TO OUR PARK VISITORS:
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE TOWN OF GRANBY PROHIBITS DOGS FROM BEING OFF-LEASH IN SALMON BROOK PARK.  THE ONLY AREA WHERE DOGS ARE PERMITTED TO BE OFF-LEASH IS IN THE D.O.G.G.S. PARK.  IT'S BEEN REPORTED THAT SOME DOG OWNERS ALLOW THEIR DOGS TO PLAY OFF-LEASH IN THE BALL FIELDS, SOCCER FIELDS AND OTHER AREAS AT THE PARK AND IT'S CREATING A SANITATION PROBLEM BECAUSE NO ONE IS PICKING UP THEIR DOG'S POOP.  IF YOU'RE VISITING OUR DOG PARK, PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL OF SALMON BROOK PARK'S RULES AND KEEP YOUR DOG ON A LEAD UNTIL YOU ARE SAFELY INSIDE THE DESIGNATED OFF-LEASH AREA.  THANK YOU!

ATTENTION PARK VISITORS

The Town of Granby is not responsible or liable for any injury to any person or dog as stated in the posted park rules.  The park is for CANINE off-leash recreation only and because of obvious health, safety, and personal liability issues, CHILDREN UNDER 8 YEARS OLD ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE PARK. CHILDREN UNDER 16 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT WITH A DOG.  Since the park is specifically designated for canine off-leash play, it is expected that anyone coming into the park will be accompanied by a dog.  If you bring an older child into the park when you visit with your dog, you are required to keep them under your close supervision at all times and not allow them to run around or chase the dogs - even your own.


A NEW GATE!
WE'VE INSTALLED ANOTHER DOUBLE GATED ENTRANCE/EXIT AT THE FAR LEFT SIDE OF THE PARK. THIS WILL GIVE YOU AN ALTERNATE WAY TO ENTER THE PARK IF THE PARKING LOT IS FLOODED. IF YOU ENJOY USING THE PARK AND WOULD LIKE TO HELP PAY FOR THIS NEW ENTRANCE - WHICH COST US $1,200 - PLEASE SEND A DONATION TO US AT P.O. BOX 334, GRANBY, CT 06035-0334. MAKE YOUR CHECK PAYABLE TO "TOWN OF GRANBY/DOGGS". THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL PARK VISITORS, PLEASE OBSERVE OUR POSTED PARK RULESVISITORS WHO DO NOT OBSERVE PARK RULES WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE PARK PER ORDER OF THE TOWN OF GRANBY.

AND ANOTHER MESSAGE TO OUR PARK VISITORS:  We hope you and your dog(s) enjoy your visits to Granby's public off-leash canine park. Although D.O.G.G.S. falls under the auspices of the Parks Department for the Town of Granby, we do not receive any public funds to manage and maintain your park. Without private donations, we wouldn't have the funds we need to keep the park open to the general public. If you haven't already made a donation to support the park, please consider making a donation today. Your donation is tax deductible (CT residents) and will go a long way in keeping our park maintained throughout the year. For more information, check out our brochures at the park or, click here to print a donation form and mail it in to us today.
