Temporary Closure of Allen Township Dog Park
February 20th through Mid to Late April (or sooner depending on conditions)
The Allen Township Dog Park will be temporarily closed from February 20th through mid to late April (estimated date of reopening). The temporary closure is due to the amount of precipitation our area has experienced over the past few months, as well as the upcoming freeze/thaw cycle. Limiting all paw/foot traffic during this estimated timeframe and while wet and semi-frozen conditions persist, will allow for the proper regeneration of healthy turf grass.
Additionally, the cycle of the ground freezing in the evening hours followed by thawing during the daytime, creates a slushy, muddy and slippery dog park that is not be safe for you or your pet.
The amount of precipitation we receive, going forward, how quickly the frost leaves the ground and the surface dries will determine when the dog park reopens. The Township estimates the reopening to occur tentatively, mid to late April (or sooner depending on conditions). The reopening date will be announced on the Township website and Township Facebook Page.
Thank you for your cooperation during the closure and we look forward to the re-opening of the facility as soon as proper conditions allow.
