HSOY Executive Director Shawn Smith is asking residents of the City of Yuma and the public at large to write City Council members and the Mayor in support of the much needed and anticipated dog park. He writes,
Dear friends,
The Humane Society of Yuma is working with the City of Yuma's Parks and Recreation department to open a dog park. It's long overdue for this community, and we all know how the game is played..."the squeaky wheel gets the grease." The City is nearing the end of it's budget review, therefore, now is the time to create a little noise!
I'm respectfully requesting that all of you to take a few minutes and write our City Council Members and/or Mayor to show support for the park. The proposed location is behind the Pacific Ave Wal-Mart.
We're seeking financial support from Wal-Mart, and although it looks promising, there are no guarantees. In any case, our growing, progressive, and wonderful city would certainly benefit from such a project!
Please write and ask your friends to write as well!
Respectfully,
Shawn
