Pick up after your pup- 3 pet waste stations have been freshly installed in our neighborhood!

If you find yourself out walking and run out of bags, we've got you!

Pet waste stations can be found at:

Stevens Square Park
Overlook Garden
LaSalle Community Garden

Please feel free to let us know if when they are empty so we can refill them.

Here's to keeping our neighborhood cleaner and pet waste-free!

Special thank you to Mississippi Watershed Management Organization for making these pet-waste stations a reality for us!
