Watkinsville Dog Park National Finalist for $100,000 grant!

Watkinsville GA is a national finalist for a Petsafe $100,000 grant for our Bark Park dog park. We need everyone to vote twice daily!

Oconee Veterans Park and Watkinsville GA are one of 16 towns nationwide in the 2015 Petsafe Bark For Your Park $100,000 grant opportunity. The town that receives the most votes by July 22nd will receive $100,000 to build or enhance their community dog park! We need everyone to come together and help support this effort. Each person with an e-mail address can vote Watkinsville GA daily! You can vote by visiting http://www.PetSafe.net and creating a free account, and you can vote an additional time at http://apps.facebook.com/BarkForYourPark on your mobile device or http://www.facebook.com/PetSafeBrand

You don’t have to live in the community to vote Watkinsville GA, and this isn’t just for our community. The grant would allow us to enhance our current park at Oconee Veterans Park to a regional park for the greater Oconee community! Please take a moment each day to vote, and ask friends to do the same! Finally, ”like” our Bark Park page http://www.facebook.com/BarkParkWatkinsville for information on upcoming events and voting reminders.
