Kingsport's Dogwood Park set to open - Kingsport, TN - News Article Locations on Waymarking.com

Front page news on Monday, December 8th, is now also Waymark WM5ATA for the Dogwood dog park in Kingsport, TN. Nice facility opening behind the minor league baseball stadium (Waymark WM4X8T).

The three-acre park is an off-leash, fenced recreation area where dogs may legally run, play and socialize with other dogs. The park has a 6-foot-high, vinyl-coated chain-link fence all around a wooded site with all natural features. It is divided into two sections — a 2.5-acre section for larger dogs and a half-acre section for older and smaller dogs. The cost of the dog park came in at budget of $40,000.

The key piece of information the article announced was the registration requirement:
People who want to bring their dogs to the new dog park must first register their dog at the Civic Auditorium beginning Monday. Dog owners must bring a copy of vaccination records for each dog, sign a release of liability, and pay the registration fee — $20 a year for the first dog and $10 for each additional dog. Non-city residents pay $25 and $15, respectively. Owners will use a key card to gain entry into the park, and all dogs must wear a special tag obtained from the city while in the park.
