GROUNDBREAKING FOR FIRST PUBLIC DOG PARK IN BROWNSBURG

Officials representing the Town of Brownsburg and Brownsburg Parks will gather at Cardinal Park on Tuesday, Aug. 27 at 5:30 p.m. for a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the beginning of Phase 2 construction which includes Brownsburg’s first public dog park.

The new 2-acre dog park, located at 3432 N. County Rd. 800 E., will feature separate large dog and small dog areas, natural play features for dogs, shade sails, a wash station and more. In addition, a year-round restroom facility will be built.

“We are excited to provide this long-awaited amenity to the community,” said Brownsburg Parks Director Travis Tranbarger. “Off leash dog areas can provide many social and physical benefits to not only the dogs but also their owners.”

The dog park is expected to be open to the public in spring 2020.

Planning for phase 3 is underway and will include a fully inclusive playground and a shelter.
