Brimfield roundup: Dog parks, human parks and a memorial for Sam Wilson

- Wendy DiAlesandro

Parks Director Cassie Weyer is compiling the results from more than 100 survey responses about the Cranberry Creek Dog Park. Weyer will use the feedback to apply for a $5,000 PetSafe Bark for Your Park grant. If the grant funds come through, Weyer said she would like to improve or replace the park’s fencing and gate.

Many people who responded to the survey said they don’t have fences in their yards and valued the park for its fencing. Others, however, cited safety concerns, the need for a dog park makeover, lack of publicity and the lack of a water source. The survey will be open until May 10, and is accessible from the township’s Facebook page or by using a QR code posted at the dog park.
