🐾 Unleash Fun: Antlers Dog Park Grand Opening

Antlers Dog Park, a fresh addition to downtown Colorado Springs, is gearing up for its grand opening this Thursday, May 16th at 4:30pm. This innovative park, a part of the Downtown Historic Parks Master Plan, boasts separate zones for small and large dogs, synthetic turf, and various amenities. The park's design prioritizes inclusivity, with ADA-compliant features and accessible pathways.

The project received funding from voter approval of ballot issue 2B in November 2019, ensuring the park's completion. The ribbon-cutting ceremony, open to the public, promises giveaways and a chance for dogs and owners to enjoy the festivities.
