From the Friends of Evergreen Dog Park:

BIG News!! Read below to see how you can help!

We finally have a proposal for a new off-leash dog park with hiking trails in Evergreen!

After five long years of FEDP advocacy and research, JeffCo has offered to provide funding to the Evergreen Park & Recreation District (EPRD). This funding can only be used to purchase land and improvements for an off-leash dog park.

We Need Your Help NOW!
1. Email EPRD Board Members to express your support
2. Send a personal postcard to EPRD Board Members to express your support
3. Call the EPRD Board Office to register your support

The EPRD Board must vote to accept the funding and move forward with plans. It’s time to remind our elected officials at EPRD of the overwhelming support for off-leash open space in Evergreen.
EPRD and FEDP continue to look at land options, but a 36-acre tract near Fillius park and the Xcel substation north of Evergreen Parkway is a leading candidate. This land would provide a hiking experience similar to what we loved in our former park.

Email, write or call your EPRD Board Members TODAY to register your positive support!

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
