How great is this? A resident of the neighborhood wanted a dog park, took some proactive steps working with the city, and now it is becoming a reality. From Richard Sebastian’s blog:

I’ve been working with a small group of committed dog owners in the Northside community and with employees of the Richmond City Parks & Recreation Department (shout to Larry & Mary Lois) to make this dog park a reality. Together we’ve identified a great location — a grassy, wooded area across the parking lot from Pine Camp Arts Center — and have applied for and been approved to be a partner of the Richmond Recreation & Parks Foundation. This gives us 503c status and makes it easier to raise funds. After an orientation meeting with a member of the Foundation, we’ll be ready to go out and promote our park plans, recruit volunteers, and solicit financial help.

If you’d like to get involved with the Northside Dog park check out their site.
