## Details
This a casual pack walk around the Crescenta Valley Community Park.
The walk will begin near the dog park, but we won't be going that way. We will head East toward New York Ave and then cut back to the fire road on the other side of the Verdugo Wash ending in a woodland area near the cars. The open field sometimes has off-leash dogs playing fetch, but typically these dogs have excellent recall and it is nothing to worry about.
Throughout the walk, there will be opportunities to place on objects, some agility challenges, work around distractions, and just generally connect as a community of responsible dog owners.
