Dates for your diary: Parks Trust walkies
Posted by journonest in Blog, Walkies on January 7, 2012
According to The Parks Trust, no one in Milton Keynes is ever more than half a mile from a green space. Excellent news for dog walkers!
The Trust has just released its 2012 events calendar and this includes some doggy dates for the diaries, including a series of Bark in the Park walks – a chance for dogs to socialise, discover a new walk and get a personal escort from one of the Parks Trust rangers. And there’s the Big Doggie Do to look forward to in June. For full details, visit the Parks Trust website.
