TRAVERSE CITY — The Traverse City/Garfield Township Recreation Authority has been asked about the possibility of dog parks — where pets can run off-leash — and has said it supports the idea.
But the group doesn't have the resources to develop a dog park. Brandi Gleason, a primary park supporter, has agreed to be the point person for fundraising and ideas.
Anyone interested in helping can contact Gleason by e-mail (preferred) at brandigleason@aim.com or call her, 392-4011.
Skiers aren't the only ones thrilled the annual Vasa race will proceed despite warm temperatures and little snow.
