-Ahdawagam Trails
Dogs allowed on all trails and within 10 feet of trails.

-Ben Hansen Park

Dogs allowed on the trail and in the park, except not in playground areas,
volleyball courts, and the grounds of the State Firefighters Memorial.

-Henry Demitz Park

Dogs allowed.

-Legion Park
Dogs allowed on trail and within 10 feet of trail.

-Lyon Park
Dogs allowed on the trail and in the park, except not in playground areas.

-Mead Rapids View Park
Dogs allowed on the trail and within 10 feet of the trail.

-Poplar Springs Park

Dogs allowed.

-Tails and Trails Dog Park
Dogs allowed. Dogs allowed without a leash provided park rules are followed.

-Veterans’ Memorial Park
