This was posted by a park patron on Thursday.
"FYI my car was broken into yesterday at the dog park around 1:30pm. I believe the theft was in a mid size grey suv. They took all my credit cards and cash and proceeded to go to the Arundel mills mall and spend 8k on all of my accounts. Stay safe and vigilant!"
REMIND OTHERS NOT TO LEAVE VALUABLES IN THEIR CAR.

𝙈𝒚𝙨𝒕𝙚𝒓𝙮 𝘿𝒐𝙜 𝙑𝒊𝙧𝒖𝙨? 𝙒𝒉𝙖𝒕'𝒔 𝒕𝙝𝒆 𝒍𝙖𝒕𝙚𝒔𝙩? According to USA TODAY 2/13/2024. "While the lack of a central data collection agency makes tracking cases difficult, experts believe that cases have waned and this was another round of seasonal ebbs and flows for common dog illnesses on top of a growing trend of canine respiratory illness that has emerged in the last few years."

The Rockburn staff will be spreading sawdust most of the day in both small & large dog park.
The back section is open for use while they are working.

01/26/2024

Looking good Worthington Dog Park. 🤩 Over 30 cu yards of sawdust was spread today by HCR&P Rockburn Staff. This will improve the conditions. Thank you guys for your hard work to keep our dog park safe and enjoyable!!

01/25/2024

Field conditions today at 4 pm.
The small dog park is fair. Remember NO LARGE DOGS in SMALL PARK. The large dog park in the back and the agility area is in good/fair condition. HCR&P is trying to locate sawdust to put down. 🤞🏻
Plan on coming?
Come prepared for some mud. What else would you expect with all the snow and rain?

01/24/2024

Snow is still hanging around. Shout out to Worthington’s park attendant Bobbie Goldman who cleared the sidewalk in the small park today! Thank you Bobbie 🙂
