(Idaho Falls, ID) – The City of Idaho Falls Parks and Recreation Department is calling all dog lovers for a “Dog Park Volunteer Work Party” on July 11 at the Idaho Falls Dog Park on Lindsay Boulevard, adjacent to the Snake River Animal Shelter. 

Dog lovers and community volunteers will be able to join forces to help clean up the area, plant trees, move rocks and help make other improvements to better the park and enhance the experience for park goers and their furry, four legged friends.

“This is a great opportunity dog owners and people in the community who love their pets to come out and join forces with us to improve the area for our canine companions,” said PJ Holm, interim director of Idaho Falls Parks and Recreation. “This will be a fun and easy way to make a real difference in the experience at the dog park.  It should be a lot of fun.”

The event will begin 9 a.m. and will last until approximately 11 a.m.  Volunteers are encouraged to call the Idaho Falls Parks and Recreation Department at 208-612-8482 with questions or to obtain more information.
