As residential foreclosure rates continue to climb locally and nationally, the landscape of many communities is changing from neighborhoods filled with well maintained homes with manicured lawns, to one that includes a fair number of boarded-up eyesores that serve to diminish adjacent property values and community spirits.

     The West Chicago Park District is hosting a dog gone good time from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, May 3, at the Dog Park, located on the northwestern edge of Reed-Keppler Park. Although the event serves primarily as a chance for users to sign up or renew their dog park permits, many fun activities and programs are planned for the owners of “man’s best friend.”
