Thatcher Community Park

Nice people, well behaved dogs. A couple of poo piles from owners not paying attention. Wish there was running water. Noticed they got rid of the price weeds by the agility equipment. Thanks! 😊

Nice dog park - separate areas for smaller dogs or group play, side area for winter with bark chips. Fun little obstacle course. Poop bags, trash, benches to sit.

Cute little dog park with playground. Though we avoided the actual dog park, we hiked the small forest and the red clover field. Place is beautiful! They have bathrooms too

This park is a nice one and the grass is kept up. There’s a small winter area (see picture with the bark), a larger small dog area, and a big open area for the mixed doggos. Inside the large mixed dog area is agility equipment. I do see people bring their kiddos and they have something to play on too! There’s plenty of water available, trash cans/bag stations are provided and close enough to where you’re not having to walk outside the park or trek however long to a trash. There’s plenty of parking. There’s also a baseball field and nature trails right outside the dog areas. There aren’t really paths (paved or dirt), but the parking lot is paved, walk to the park is paved, and there’s the area under the gazebo thing that’s paved (James in the pic is lying on it). I will note- I do find a lot of people at this particular location with intact dogs, more so than other parks we have been to. James gives it the paws up!

Beautiful park/dog park! Wish the city wasn’t so lazy. Muddy spots could definitely use gravel. But they’ll do what they always do (the least amount of effort possible) and just shut the place down for the winter. Your tax dollars… laughably wasted, but the park is pretty at least.
