    "The side walks are widened so plenty of room for walks, and there are posts that give out doggy bags for dog waste. However, it’s far and few that there are any bags, or that people pick up after their dogs. There also isn’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."
