    "The side walks are widened so plenty of room for walks, and there are posts that give out doggy bags for dog waste. However, itโ€™s far and few that there are any bags, or that people pick up after their dogs. There also isnโ€™t trash cans to dispose of the waste. "

Between block parties and school events I have so many opportunities in my community to make a difference.

The kids get along great and there is no traffic so it is very safe for young children."
