4/2/2010 WDEL VIDEO: Spring clean-up at Talley Day Bark Park
The beautiful weather draws dozens to the annual Spring clean-up at the Talley Day Bark Park in Talleyville.
WDEL's Amy Cherry was there.
Man's best friend and their faithful masters work hard on this picture perfect Friday spreading mulch to preserve their favorite place.
County Council Bob Weiner (R-2nd District) organizes the volunteer efforts, and he says without the good people of Wilmington, this dog park would have likely fallen to budget cuts during these tough economic times.
Deborah Hufnell and Helen Lowry of North Wilmington says they come to the Bark Park every night. They say it's their favorite place in the world, and they're happy to help keep it clean.
County Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday evenings of each month
"Bob Weiner has done a great job in developing and constantly keeping a watchful eye over the Talley Day County Park and its dog park. I live on Wilson Road directly across the street from the park. I talk to many pet owners who just love the park. Many have told me that it's very relaxing there and they love the fact that their dogs can play together in a secure environment. When Bob walks around the park with his two dogs he stops to say hi to everyone. He certainly deserves credit for a job "well done" and I thank him for that along with so many pet owners. "
