TUCSON, Ariz. — Tucsonans will soon have another option to take their furry friends for a walk, thanks to a $25,000 grant from the PetSafe® 2022 Bark for Your Park™ Contest.
Public Information Officer Sierra Boyer, CPRP with the Tucson Parks and Recreation Department confirmed with KGUN 9 these funds will go toward building a new dog park at Lincoln Park. All throughout August, PetSafe® held a contest where voters could cast their votes. The City of Tucson got enough votes to win.
“With this grant, Tucson will be able to add more amenities to the dog park that the community is dreaming of, like a water spray feature to keep cool during the extremely hot summer days, and a giant obstacle course for the dogs to play on and enjoy,” said Ward 4 Council Member Nikki Lee."In addition, pet water fountains, trees, shade structures, and other play equipment will be added to truly make this dog park one-of-a-kind," added Lee.
A HUGE thank you to everyone who voted throughout August! Because of YOU we were able to win a $25 grant to help build a new dog park at Lincoln Park! @CouncilwomanLee https://t.co/nJCvb6JY6QCaleb Fernández is a digital content producer for KGUN 9.
