They are extremely <br /> successful and popular. I'm cc'ing our Public Information specialist and someone from our operations side so <br /> that they may be able to follow up with more specific information and/or some photos. <br /> Original Message <br /> From: Maya Avrasin [mailto:mavrasin@nrpa.org] <br /> Sent: Wednesday, October 01,2003 8:37 AM <br /> To: Pete Conces; nrpanet-all@lists.nrpa.org;opraeconnection@lists.opraonlin.org <br /> Subject: RE: Dog Parks <br /> Dear Everyone, <br /> I am actually writing a story about dog parks for the November issue of Parks &Recreation and would <br /> appreciate any feedback from anyone who has contemplated the creation of a dog park, or anyone who has <br /> successfully created a dog park. Other questions I have in mind include the difficulties of setting aside space for <br /> a dog park,whether the field is exclusive or takes turns with other activities;what type of maintenance is <br /> *needed, etc. Any information would be helpful. <br /> Please contact me with any information you may have ASAP. Thanks in advance for your help. <br /> Genuinely, <br /> Maya Avrasin <br /> National Recreation and Park Association <br /> Editorial Assistant <br /> mavrasin@nrpa.org <br /> 703-858-2145 <br /> Original Message <br /> From: Pete Conces [mailto:Pete.Conces@beachwoodohio.com] <br /> Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 9:32 AM <br /> To: nrpanet-all@lists.nrpa.org; opraeconnection@lists.opraonlin.org <br /> Subject: Dog Parks <br /> Good morning netters.. <br /> Our City is currently investigating the concept of a Dog Park. If your city currently has one,I would be <br /> interested in obtaining any or all information about it. What is the size,what equipment is provided on site, do <br /> you have any posted rules,i.e. cleaning up after dogs, and any other amenities you may provide. Pros and cons <br /> of the facility would also be welcome. Thanks for your help in advance. <br /> Pete Conces <br /> 1 <br />
