Shannon M. Owens: What would Rita say?

Shannon M. Owens

We enjoy walking our dogs in Rita Valentine Park and absolutely appreciate the connector trails. In my opinion, we should preserve what few parks we have, and the parks located within the center of our community are more important to preserve. Sometimes, we don’t have enough time to pack our gear, load up the dogs and take a hike. We do however, have the time to put on our shoes, get the leashes out, let the dogs run and enjoy a nice trail walk through Rita Valentine Park. I wonder what Rita would say about the proposed real estate development in her park?

What would our dogs say if they had a vote?
