NEW SHADE STRUCTURES
September 9, 2008
FORDOG Volunteers built 3 shade structures for the new Phoenix Dog Park.
Materials paid for from generous donations of our pet owners.
Seven volunteers provided labor and tools to build the structures. Two more volunteers provided water, donuts, and lunch. Another volunteer took photos to preserve the accomplishment. The Fair Oaks Recreation and Park District provided generators and electrical as well as delivering the material that had been stored at their maintenance yard..
Many other dog owners stopped by during the project to provide moral support:
Material was hand carried from the parking lot.
Crew sets up their tools.
Up go the "stringers" support beams.
Cross pieces help support the "roof".
Everyone worked on the first structure to get it right!
Teamwork!
Second crew starts their structure...
While the third crew starts theirs...
Everyone assisted on all three structures as needed.
It's starting to take shape!
Framing the roof.
First structure is completed.
Ain't it grand!?xxx Benches were purchased by the pet owners and installed by the Park District.
