Mike had a grand vision for the Breese Dog Park, bringing enthusiasm and dedication to every meeting, and never missing a single fundraiser. His ideas and research were invaluable, truly making him an asset to our team. It is with heartfelt regret that he won’t see the project completed, but we commit to honoring his memory by continuing this project in a way that would make him proud.

Please keep Mike and his family in your thoughts during this profound time of mourning.

Rest in peace, Mike. Your legacy will guide us🐾

We're excited to share an update on our fundraising progress for the upcoming Breese Dog Park.🐾

To date, we've successfully raised over $10,000, which brings us closer to our goal of $28,000 needed to cover the costs of fencing and labor. The park will be conveniently located at the Soccer Park, near Applebee's and the Hospital. We're still actively working towards our target, and every bit of support helps us get one step closer.

Please continue to support and spread the word about our project! Donations are welcome via Venmo or checks made payable to The City of Breese, with "Dog Park" noted in the memo section.

Thank you for your continued support as we strive to create a wonderful space for our community and their furry friends!
