Come On Out!
Welcome to K9COLA's Web site! We are the users' group for off-leash parks in the Cedar Rapids metro area.
The Cheyenne Park Off-Leash Area, Cedar Rapids' first off-leash park, was largely destroyed by flooding in the summer of 2008; at this time, only the 1-1/2 acre training yard is open for business: but it is open, and we encourage you to bring your dog out to play!
We are currently working with the city on designing and developing a new off-leash park, which will be located in Marion by Squaw Creek Park across from Gardner Golf Course. Please consider getting involved; your donations of time and money will help us accomplish our goals more quickly.
Please explore our pages to learn more about us, our history and goals, the history of the Cheyenne dog park, and our progress toward a new park and a brighter off-leash future for our community!

A new park is under development. Get involved!
WE NEED YOUR HELP! We have had only one person sign up to do trash duty at Cheyenne Park this month. Syd and I will fill in the other weekends in February, but we need people for March and beyond. We need every park user to help if possible. If we want off-leash parks in Cedar Rapids we need people to volunteer to help with trash duty otherwise we WON'T HAVE ANY PARKS! Once we get the new park going and Cheyenne rebuilt we will need A LOT of volunteers. This is an easy chore to do: fill the bag holders in the park, empty the trash can bags into the dumpster, and put a new bag in the can. Your dog would love to help too! There are extra bags in the bench at Cheyenne. If you can help please contact Erin at volunteer@k9cola.org. If you have questions contact me at steve@k9cola.org. Please step up: this is important.
