(VERNON, Connecticut) – The Vernon Parks and Recreation Department is hosting an informational meeting for town residents interested in supporting the Saxony Dog Park on West Street. The meeting, via Zoom, is scheduled for Thursday, January 27, 2022 at 6 p.m.
“The Saxony Dog Park has been a great addition to our recreational offerings in Vernon and we have heard a lot of positive comments from dog owners ,” Mayor Dan Champagne said. “Now we are asking park users to take a role in supporting the dog park and advising the Parks and Recreation Department.”
Topics the Friends of Saxony Dog Park might tackle include park rules, volunteering to benefit the park and raising money to support the park.
“The Vernon Greenways Volunteers play an invaluable role in overseeing Vernon’s trail system and our goal is to have a similar group of people focused on the dog park,” Parks and Recreation Director Marty Sitler said. “Park users are there just about every day and can help us monitor the park and ensure the best possible experience for visitors.”
