In an effort to keep the dog park open year round, Parks staff will be conducting maintenance over the next several weeks. Some of the work includes winterizing the drinking fountains. All of the drinking fountains will be turned off for the winter, except for the frost-free fountain located in the top area of the park. Also, starting Monday, November 16th, the pond area will be closed so Parks staff may install a bridge over the drainage area. Please do not attempt to enter the pond area during the closure. Please also keep your dogs out of active maintenance areas and away from Park workers so they may work uninterrupted. We appreciate your ongoing patience as we work to improve the Dog Park.
Ridgecrest Golf Club will observe modified hours for the winter. They will be open Monday-Sunday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Sunday. For more information, call 468-5888 or visit www.ridgecrestgolf.com.
