Dog Run, Round XXXXIII

Dear fellow dog owners,
This Thursday, the Suffolk County Parks Board of Trustees will meet at Coindre Hall at 1 p.m. for the first time in almost two years. The last time the Parks Trustees met at Coindre Hall, several people from the surrounding neighborhood spoke out against the presence of dog owners and their dogs at Coindre Hall and asked the County to come up with a plan for dealing with the situation.

LI-DOG plans on attending the meeting this Thursday in order to respond to any complaints made by neighbors against dog owners at Coindre Hall. We also will reiterate LI-DOG's readiness to sit down with other park users to come up with a workable solution that will allow all of us to enjoy the park.

We are asking our fellow dog owners to:

Join us at 1 p.m. on Thursday to stand up for the right of dog owners to be at Coindre Hall!

Let the Parks Trustees know the presence of dog owners and their dogs have made Coindre Hall a SAFE county park

Let the Parks Trustees know the presence of dog owners and their dogs makes Coindre Hall a CLEAN county park. No other waterfront property is clean of goose droppings! And, we clean up after our dogs.

Let the Parks Trustees know that dog owners are willing to Share the Park and that we are ready to sit down with other park users to come up with a solution at Coindre Hall that works for everyone



- If you can't join us, please help us make sure that:



o The park is Clean on Thursday morning!

o Dogs are on-leash Thurs. from 1 until 4 p.m. while the Trustees meet

o There are no aggressive dogs in the park

o The park is free of excessive barking
