Olde Izaak Walton Dog Park to Undergo Maintenance
Beginning March 7
The dog park will be closed for four days to allow replacement of wood chip
mulch.
Leesburg, VA (March 4, 2022) – The Town of
Leesburg Parks and Recreation Department,
with support from the Department of Public
Works, will be performing annual
maintenance inside the Olde Izaak Walton
Dog Park beginning Monday, March 7, 2022.
The dog park will reopen on Friday, March
11.
Maintenance will include the removal of the
existing wood chip mulch, which will be
replaced with a new layer. The
decomposition of the existing mulch causes the surfacing to become saturated after a period of
time and can often lead to drainage concerns. Applying new mulch will create a more stable,
well drained surface throughout the season.
