Braddock Dogs
Association, a volunteer
group dedicated to the development and maintenance of off-leash dog areas
(OLDA) within the Braddock District, is working towards the development of a
new OLDA at Monticello Park on Guinea Road, between the intersections of Burke
Road and Bronte Drive. The dog area is part of the Monticello Park Master Plan,
which also includes a walking trail loop around the park, a new playground, and
a skate spot for older children and teenagers.
However, the
OLDA cannot be added to the upgraded Monticello Park Master Plan until the Park
Bond is approved at the November election and
Braddock Dogs raises the estimated $15,000 to cover construction costs. While
no funds can be collected prior to Bond approval, Braddock Dogs is seeking
pledges that can be contributed once the bond referendum has been passed.
If you are
interested in helping provide a safe environment for community canines to
exercise, play and socialize, please pledge to support this effort!
