Paris, Tenn.–The city of Paris is inviting the public (especially dog-lovers) to be in attendance Thursday morning for the presentation of the $25,000 check for improvements to the Atkins-Porter Dog Park.
Randy Boyd will present the check at the dog park at 9:30 a.m. The grant comes from the Tennessee Dog Park Dash funded by the Boyd Foundation. In the event of rain, the presentation will be made indoors at the Atkins-Porter Rec Center, located at the corner of Highland and Walnut Streets.
