Appeal to Dog Owners 

It has been brought to our attention that dogs are being left off their leads at the walking track. We are asking Dog owners to please keep their pets on leads at all times and to be mindful of other track users and their pets. Also we are appealing to dog owners to continue to clean up after your dog, with a bin provided near the club house. We will continue to monitor this situation.
