I have good news for residents with dogs. This just in from John Edmonson.
John's original message:
Hello Residents of Chemainus Gardens from John Edmondson
Today I received permission from John Kelly to use the new fenced area in Phase 2, that is designated for future RV parking, as a temporary Dog Park.
Rick and I went up today and attached some fencing so the area can be closed off and I have ordered some signs.
( a note here: the signs do cost. If everyone donated $2.00 to John it would cover this cost. If you do not know John, I would be happy to collect and give him any funds donated)
We have exclusive use of this area for our dogs for at least 60 days. Chemainus Gardens is supplying the space so it will be up to ALL OF US to adapt, BE RESPONSIBLE, clean up and manage the area.
Tomorrow we will get the signs up and a Garbage can in place...
From there it is open for any improvements we want to add. For example there is a 30 foot section of the new chain link that needs some obstruction put in place to prevent the smallest dogs from getting out.
We can talk more among ourselves about other details and how to respect each other's dogs, but it is available now for our dogs enjoyment

That is such great news! Please do stop and thank both John and Rick for persevering and getting something done...especially for the larger dogs...
I'll send this off now..
