Update on El Dorado Hills off-leash dog park. The El Dorado Hills Community Services District Board of Directors voted 4-0 last Thursday to approve the grading of the designated small & large dog parks at the Community Park. This will be a big boost to moving forward with fundraising! In addition, a bridge construction was approved which will allow dogs and walkers to cross New York Creek, avoiding having to walk on St. Andrews Road to get to the parks. All access will be from the large parking lot. Very happy with the progress! 

Want to help spread the word in El Dorado Hills? Come to our monthly membership meetings...1st Wednesday of the month, upstairs in the Community Room, Nugget Market, El Dorado Hills, 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM. All Welcome! Holly Morrison-EDDOG President and Chairperson

Cameron Park and El Dorado Hills Community Services Districts each have allocated city land for the exclusive use as off-leash dog parks due to the concerted efforts on the part of EDDOG volunteers!

Land was officially approved for an off–leash dog park in Cameron Park in January 2008 and for El Dorado Hills in February 2009.  Cameron Park was granted the Hacienda Park, approximately .55 acre of land, and 1.75 acres for El Dorado Hills.  The establishment of the location of these dog parks has required cooperation between residents and local government. Further work to complete these projects will continue to require cooperation between local residents and government to be able to complete these goals to open the dog parks.

So far, EDDOG has been allocated $10,000 for Cameron Park and $50,000 for El Dorado Hills by working closely with the Cameron Park Community Services District (CPCSD) and El Dorado Hills Community Services District (EDHCSD). The latter is in the process of obtaining design plans for the construction of the El Dorado Hills Dog Park at Community Park.

In 2010, EDDOG began to leverage social networking sites to further reach out and engage the community, local businesses, and common interest groups to help towards reaching its goal and fundraising efforts.

Hacienda Park, Cameron Park     The Cameron Park CSD has designated a half-acre in Hacienda Park, located at the northeast corner of Cameron Park Drive and Hacienda Drive. EDDOG has completed the architectural design for its Hacienda Dog Park at Hacienda Park in Cameron Park. Although land has been designated, EDDOG realizes the imoprtance of maintaining visibility by going to monthly meetings or special planning meetings as appropriate with the respective CSDs.

Community Park, El Dorado Hills     The dog park slated for El Dorado Hills will comprise a total of 2 acres located at the north end of Community Park adjacent to the soccer field at El Dorado Hills Blvd. and St Andrews Dr. The park will feature separate areas for small and large dogs.
