Destin’s first dog park is coming closer to reality! The park would be located at the intersection of Indian Bayou Trail and Commons Drive. Destin resident Nancy Weidenhamer has been leading the cause for raising funds to build the fence and the landscaping required for the park. The city has agreed to match fifty percent of the construction costs. The hope is for the park to be open by fall, so that all of Destin’s dog lovers will have a place to come together with their pets to enjoy the outdoors!
UPDATE 9/6/11: Approximately $30,000 has now been raised by volunteers, and the city has agreed to match $30,000 of the dog park funding fees!
