DEVELOPMENT NEWS FROM KCCP FACILITIES COMMITTEE
Friday, 17 May 2019
New Off Leash/Exercise Areas now open!
Dogs Victoria KCC Park Facilities Committee and The Whippet Association of Victoria, who so generously funded the new facilities, are pleased to announce the three new exercise runs are NOW OPEN.
Washed sand has been spread over the surface and grass is coming through but please be aware the sand surface may feel like the beach until the grass is fully grown.
Testing of the runs today with Scottish Terriers, Airedale Terriers and Rottweilers was highly successful for both owners and dogs!
Pooper scoopers and pick up bag dispensers are located in each run. We remind all members to be responsible with the use of these new facilities.
Some added features to the area will commence in spring 2019.
Our sincere thanks to our members for your patience during the construction period headed up by our hard working volunteers and contractors. The new area has opened ahead of schedule in under four weeks since commencement of the project.
I think you will agree the 'before and after' photos speak for themselves!
Construction Works in Progress
With many events being held in the coming fortnight at KCC Park, members are reminded not to enter any construction zones around the area.
Currently building materials and construction is in progress around the grassed areas near the gazebos and BBQs and these are therefore out of bounds to everyone until further notice.
YOUR safety is OUR priority.
