Thanks to everyone who came to the wine tasting last week! It was a blast!

We have four days left to meet our goal of raising $15,000 by May 31. Will you help us raise the last $500? This will ensure that we can buy amenities, like benches and plants, for Kingsman Field Dog Park, and have a start on funds to maintain the park as well.

Here are some ways you can help:

• Make a donation - even a small donation helps!
• Sponsor a brick at Kingsman Field Dog Park
• Talk to a local business about sponsoring a brick or bench. Email beth@hillhounds.com for more information.

We have now gotten quite a few sponsorships of engraved bricks at the forthcoming Kingsman Field Dog Park! So we made a page to showcase them. For information about sponsoring a brick, go to hillhounds.com/brick Here are a few of my personal favorites:
