The Bentonville Bark Park is an off-leash recreation area for dogs and dog
lovers, just west of the North Bentonville Trail. The primary purpose is
to provide exercise and socialization opportunities for our four-legged friends
while promoting responsible dog ownership through events and programs. The
Bark Park began as a Girl Scout Gold Award project for Melissa Schube and turned
into a community-wide effort to raise money to build Bentonville's first dog
park. Nearly $150,000 in donations was raised. A huge Thank You goes
out to:
- American Safety Razor
- Wiolson/Schopper
- Nestle Purina
- Fredrick Lutz
- Del Monet Foods
- Kim Ochlerking
- Aspen Pet Products
- Beth Zahler
- Andrea Klokow
- Mary Heman
- Jamie Fox
- Carol Hudson
