Join us in our New location, Namaqua Park, on Saturday, August 21, in celebration of National Dog Day. Enjoy lots of green grass and shade as we explore, try out and learn about ways to support and recreate with our furry friends. Bring your leashed dog and learn about places to hike and enjoy the outdoors with your 4-legged friend. Talk with trainers about growing with your dog, understanding each other, and what helps make adventuring together even more fun for both of you. Other providers of canine comforts will include Dog Baths and Beyond and Poudre Pet and Feed. Activities to try will include agility obstacles and canine parkour. What is canine parkour? Some call it Urban Agility - using obstacles along your everyday walks in places like parks and natural areas. Here is a short clip (though we will not have tree climbing): https://youtu.be/igRd0omlgjA There will also be a Find-the-Dogs scavenger hunt and a photo op area for you and your furry pals. Thank you to all those dog owners who use our natural areas respectfully, thank you for the poop pick up, the leashes, and your support. Help us spread the word - invite some friends to join you and our Dog Day of Summer. Free, drop-in event. Registration appreciated (for doggy Open Lands and Trails swag). Loveland Police K9 Officer dog demonstration about 7pm.

I have spent most of my life in Colorado. I have a lifelong interest in nature as a photographer, an avid reader, a hiker (really an ambler), a student, and a teacher. I enjoy sharing nature with others and have been told that I make it easy and fun for my audiences. I have volunteered with the Open Lands and Trials Division since March 2018. I have volunteered as an instructor, trail host and guided walk leader. I am a Certified Interpretive Guide. I look forward to sharing time in Nature wit
