Dog Park

 

Update! The new benches have been installed and a few trees planted at the Dog Park. The benches were an Eagle Scout Project headed up by James Conrad — GCC donated half the bases, Whetstone Lumber in Milbank provided the lumber at cost. The City of Ortonville provided the funding.

The rules will be posted at the park –
