🐾 Help Us Keep Swanzey Clean & Safe! 🐾

The Swanzey Recreation Department has some great news but we also need your help! To combat the ongoing dog f***s issues at our community spaces, we have installed four new dog waste stations across three popular locations around town:

📍 Brown Memorial Field (1 station)
📍 AA Memorial Park (1 station)
📍 Swanzey Ball Fields (2 stations)

⚾ A Special Request for Our Ball Fields
We love seeing your furry friends, but we are asking all dog owners to be extra vigilant, especially on the infields at the Swanzey Ball Fields and Brown Memorial Field.

Leaving pet waste on the dirt and grass where our community’s children and athletes slide, run, and play isn't just unpleasant, it's a health hazard.

⚠️ Know the Rules: It’s the Law
Please remember that keeping our parks clean isn't just a courtesy; it's a town ordinance.https://cms8.revize.com/revize/swanzeynh/Document%20Center/Government/Ordinances%20&%20Policies/(6)Swanzey%20Dog%20F***s%20Ordinance%20Adopted%208%2027%202008.pdf

Per the Town Dog F***s Ordinance: Failure to clean up after your animal will result in a $50 fine.

There are now zero excuses! The new stations are fully stocked with bags and a disposal bin. Please do your part, grab a bag, and help us keep Swanzey's recreational spaces beautiful and safe for everyone.

Thank you for being a responsible pet owner! 🐶❤️
