The CDA's Annual Membership Meeting on November 13, 2019. We had six nominees running for four board positions. Board appointments of the Officer positions for 2020 will be confirmed at the January meeting.
We had our first hard freeze last night. Therefore, the water fountains in the park have been shut off for the season. Please plan accordingly and bring water for your dog(s) until the water can be turned on again in the spring.
The Chelmsford Dog Association Annual Meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 13 in the Training Room at the Chelmsford Fire Department at the Chelmsford Town Offices (50 Billerica Rd, Chelmsford) and will begin at 6:30PM. The CDA Board of Directors has 4 open (2 year) positions for election this year. We encourage all CDA members to attend the Annual Meeting in November, and vote.

The meeting dates for the CDA meetings in September and October have changed. The meetings which were scheduled for Tuesday, September 17 and Tuesday, October 8 have been moved to Wednesday, September 18 and Wednesday, October 9.
The CDA is thrilled to announce that Feathers & Tails Pet Care will be renting the "training area" from 8am to 5pm on weekdays, starting July 22, 2019. Although they might not be present during that entire period, every day, the training area has been rented to them for their use only. This means that when they are present, that area is CLOSED for normal park use. We appreciate everyone's cooperation by leaving that area if trainees do show up.
Due to excessive temperature and humidity expected this weekend, with heat indexes topping 105, the Chelmsford Dog Park will be closed from Saturday, July 20 through Sunday, July 21 for the safety and well-being of our canine companions. Please take care with your dogs and keep them inside and hydrated in this dangerous heat.
For every "Give Back" bag purchased at the Stop & Shop on Chelmsford Street in Chelmsford in August, $1 will be donated to the Chelmsford Dog Association, to support the Chelmsford Dog Park.
We've got stuff to do! We are planning a work-party to do mid-year cleanup and maintenance on the park – As usual, the work party will be from 8am to noon - this time on Sunday, July 28 The park will be CLOSED for normal usage during this work-party, but volunteers can bring their dogs to hang out in the training area while we humans make the park nice for them (and us).
Here's a list of things that can be done by people during park visits... tools for most of this are in the cedar "closet" attached to the side of the large shed. We still have a pretty long list of things to get done and. As usual, we'll continue to hold the work parties. However, we need ongoing help from you!
We are fundraising to add three drains and the piping to reduce the worst of the puddle areas in the park.
Summer’s not here yet, but it’s fast approaching. We got some big stuff done during the Spring Work Party, but...
