The town of Saugeen Shores has officially unveiled the new sign for the Abby Bolton Memorial Off Leash Dog Park.
The dog park, which is located on Lehnen Street in Port Elgin had its new sign revealed Friday.
Council and staff attended the unveiling, along with members of Abby Bolton’s family.
It was decided that the dog park would bear her name in memoriam after she passed away in December of 2020.
Council had renamed the park in her honour, because Bolton initially brought the idea to have the park created before Saugeen Shores council back in 2008.
The town says the park provides a place for dogs and their owners to socialize in a leash-free environment. The park is fenced on all sides and contains a waste disposal unit, along with a naturalized walking trail and seating areas.
