Memorial Centre Off Leash Dog Park


Leash-free dog parks are fully fenced areas where owners are allowed to have up to two dogs off-leash at a time. Dogs must be under control and owners must "Stoop and Scoop" their dog's waste.

The map for each location provides an overview of the fenced-in off-leash area.
