 Frieday Night Event ~ Alexander
I understand that some have proposed canceling the regular Friday night event this week to honor Alexander's passing..

I am deeply moved by such a gesture,but prefer that the event be held as usual.  Our Friday nights have become a time a fun and good times for both people and our dogs.  It's better that sadness not be associated with them.

There is a tentative plan to commemorate Alexander in the near future.  Meantime and always, please do not do anything that lessens the joy of socializing with our beloved canine friends.

Alexander will be there in spirit whenever you come together in our park.

Fred & Alexander

 Suzanne Provides Water Hauler
Suzanne (Peaches) went far out of her way to help slack our dog's thirst. The carriage that had been used to haul water jugs from the fountain to the bench sites was lost.  After some clever work, Suzanne secured a Whole Foods cart which the Miller Ave Whole Foods donated.  It is now locked behind the bulletin board for all to use.  The combination is 20 - 2 -16.  That's right to 20, twice left past 2 and then 16.  Make Suzanne's efforts pay off by filling and placing the water jugs when necessary.

Please thank Suzanne getting us this valuable asset.  Yes, it may look like a homeless person's U-Haul, but, in fact, it's a thirsty canine's best friend.  Thanks Suzanne.
