You can't take your dog on the atheltic fields at Alton's high school (PMHS) now because people haven't been picking up after their dogs. The school board announced at their meeting in June that they're going to hang up signs on the fields saying "no dogs allowed". I got up during public input and offered to organize a "dog lovers" group that could help with the problem if we could use the fields again - it was a no-go. I can't say I blame the Board for their decision - the problem has been pretty bad from what I understand.

There's other land on the school's property that you can still go, but of course the athletic fields were awesome and enclosed (great for off-leash training!)
