Lake Ridge Virginia Is Going To The Dogs...

By
Real Estate Agent with SAMSON PROPERTIES 0225018862

 

EVERY YEAR, LAKE RIDGE PARKS AND RECREATION

 THROWS A BIG PADDLE PARTY

 

FOR THE DOGS OF LAKE RIDGE. 

 

Yup our furry friends of Lake Ridge have the Tall Oaks Pool reserved just for them.

 

So mark your calendar for September 12th!

 

That's when LRPRA turns the Tall Oaks Pool Over To The Dogs. 

 

Wouldn't your Dog love to come out and play?

 If you live in Lake Ridge, Virginia  and have a dog, you will need to register by Saturday September 6th.

CALL 703-497-7112 or visit the LRPRA website for more information.

 

 If I'm not mistaken this is the Fourth Annual Doggie Paddle!

Tall Oaks Pool is located right off Old Bridge Rd, on the corner of Oakwood Drive and Old Bridge Rd. Every year when summer comes to an end and pool season is over Tall Oaks goes to the dogs! One very special day a year is reserved for our four legged residents. Sounds like fun doesn't it. Don't have dog, come as a spectator. Bring your camera, there are sure to be some photo opportunities!

Here's the scoop:

Tall Oaks Pool- Located off Old Bridge Rd between Oakwood Drive and Antietam
Saturday, September 12
Session 1: 10A.M. - 12noon
Session 2: 12noon - 2P.M.

Tall Oaks Pool goes to the dogs the Saturday after pools close to the public. Join us for a fun outing with Fido.   Proof of Prince William Co. Dog License is mandatory.  Tennis balls and Frisbees welcome.

Hi Liz,

It's a hoot! I'm not sure who has more fun the dogs or the people. Lake Ridge Parks and Recreation Association also has what they call the Great American Fish Out. This is where they fill the pool with fish and allow the dad's and their children to come learn how to fish in a safe environment. They do this in spring ( before cleaning and opening) and typically in fall (before closing pool)

They recently had a Cinamax Night where you could sqim and watch a movie on the big screen above the pool.
