The planning team met today and decided we should slide the date one week to April 14. It turned out that too many people had a conflict when the cleanup was scheduled for Easter weekend.
So… please mark your calendars. Our park cleanup is scheduled for April 14, with a rain date of April 21.

My partner and I recently started using the Airport Dog Park and LOVE it! Although, we have noticed that there seems to be ALOT of poop not picked up…after seeing all the thought put into this topic on here, I had a thought and who knows; it may have been discussed before.Â
 I know that MAC [...]
Thursday: From the “better late than never” department…
The park was surprisingly dry, considering the recent rain. There’s still a muddy area down by the end of the runway, and some of the lower spots on the marsh edge are a bit soupy. Otherwise, keep to the higher elevations if you want your dog to stay [...]
Hey all.
We need a few heads and hands to help with planning. So far, it’s Carolann and myself. A couple more volunteers would be greatly appreciated!
We are meeting next week to cover off some details and responsibilities. If you can, please join us at 12 noon on Wednesday, 3/28 at Anodyne, Nicollet and 43rd.
Hope to [...]
I would appreciate some ideas on how to teach my red merle Aussie, Fridley, not to jump up on people. He so loves everyone at the park, as those of you who’ve met him can attest. Sometimes he carries love too far by jumping up.
Any suggestions? Â I know some folks don’t mind, but most [...]
(Edited to revise the dates:)Â Well, I guess April 14 will be our Spring Cleanup (with April 21 as a rain date). To pull this off, we’ll need some volunteers to provide certain items. This list incorporate some of the ideas that have been submitted by blog readers.

The proposed date is Saturday, April 7 with a rain date on Saturday, April 14. This will give us time to get signage up at the park and spread the word.
Reactions? Yes no maybe? Does it matter that the 7th is the day before Easter and the 14th is the day before tax day?
I’m curious why you want to wait until April to try to do a pick-up day. Is it just to have time to organize? Personally, the weather this morning is my ideal pick-up temperature (if there is little or no snow on the ground) because things are still a bit frozen when you pick them [...]
i think your suggestion of april 7 or 8th w “rain check” sounds good” let’s get organized and come up w a plan to make the day fun. maybe have coffee afterward.Â
I’m an occasional user of the “dog park” and was tipped off to this site by a friend of mine. I’ve read the postings and have a few comments:
I appreciate that regular users are talking about the poop management issue and that, for the most part, it seems the majority of users see that management [...]
