Thank you to everyone who supported the Chelmsford Dog Association, participated in our events and otherwise contributed to the success of the CDA and the Chelmsford Dog Park!
As December rolls in, we enter the quiet time (in terms of activities) in the CDA schedule.
The park itself ALWAYS needs the volunteers, and we’ll keep on top of the maintenance during the winter months.
Announcement
CDA Sponsored Blood Drive
The CDA has teamed up with the American Red Cross to sponsor a blood drive on November 26, at the American legion, Post 133 in North Chelmsford (on rt 40, next to Freeman Lake).
Come support the community and beyond by donating blood.
Howl’ween 2021 Vendors
Howl’ween 2021 is coming up at the Chelmsford Dog Park, on October 23rd – 11am-2pm!
In addition to plans for food, raffles, silent auctions and games, check out the Vendors and Organizations who have signed up to be present.
Online “Merch” Orders
We have opened an online store!
Using Printful (on demand printed merchandise) and our Square account, we have arranged for CDA and CDP “merch” to be purchased online and delivered right to your door! Now you don’t have to wait for a CDA event to get that Chelmsford Dog Park T-shirt, or worry about us being sold out of the size or color that you want.
PetCPR+ Certification Class
The CDA is hosting a PetCPR+ Certification course from Pet Emergency Education on September 18, 2021 [Rescheduled date!!] at the Chelmsford Community Center at North Town Hall!
Registration is $69.95 and many of the class spots are already filled so book soon to get your spot in the remaining space!
Phase 3 Bricks have been installed!
The brick order last year was delayed because of the pandemic, and then the early snow and odd winter weather — and then continued weather patterns into the spring — delayed the installation. However, the bricks are now installed! Many thanks to Matt Kohl for doing the brick laying.
More Benches!
The CDA is working on adding additional, permanent benches to the park! Each bench costs $1200 and people can sponsor an entire bench or contribute a smaller amount which will be pooled together for benches.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
The CDA needs volunteers to help dig, plant, and fill in new trees at the Chelmsford Dog Park on April 30, starting at 9am and any time until 4pm.
