Gloucester Dog Park Approved at the City Council Meeting Last Night
design plans at www.gloucesterdogpark.org.
From GloucesterDogPark.org-
The proposed site of Gloucester’s first dog park is an under-utilized, overgrown section of Stage Fort Park. The topography, trees, and location make it an excellent choice to transform this virtually unused 2 acre site into a fantastic recreational area.
Dog Park Sections:
· Off-leash Large Dog Area – for large and small dogs comfortable around all large dogs.
· Off-leash Small Dog Area – for small dogs under 25 pounds
· Walking Path Area – on leash area for dogs that do better on leash and for people with strollers and young children.
· Special Needs & Training Area – for dogs not ready for the dog park and need special training and time to adjust. Also an area to hold training, education and adoption events.

Playground Twin Lights Restored
Kudos to Bruce Dexter the visitor center volunteer who called in repairs, the public works folks for fixing, Rotary Club people, and whoever else made and helps to upkeep these awesome old wooden play structures! Vandals took them down a few weeks ago and busted them up (for shame!), but they are restored and ready to rumble! They are so much fun and incredibly well loved by tones of happy kids everyday at Stage Fort Park. Just another unique and awesome tidbit in Gloucester!

What is the Gran Prix of Gloucester?
Take a dramatic harborfront park at the height of fall foliage season. Set up a twisting grass, dirt and asphalt racecourse with challenging obstacles. Unleash a crowd of world class cyclists to charge through the sharp curves and jump the barriers. Add screaming, cowbell ringing fans incited by a dynamic announcers. What do you have? One of the premier bicycle races in the country, right here in Gloucester.
The Gran Prix of Gloucester is two days of national calibre races where competitors from all over the US, Canada & Europe converge to race on the most beautiful race course in North America.
What is Cyclocross?
The most spectator-friendly form of bicycle racing, regardless of whether you’ve seen a bicycle race or not, cyclocross can be enjoyed by everyone.
Cyclocross (or just ‘cross to the throngs that race week in and week out) is a relatively new discipline of cycling in the US. Though it’s been around since the early 1900’s in Europe, it wasn’t until the 1970’s that cyclocross races started sprouting up in the US.
Often called the “steeplechase of bicycle racing” cyclocross races are fast-paced and are dramatic for spectators. Riders compete on a twisting course comprised of grass, asphalt and dirt. At several parts of the course, riders are forced to dismount their bikes and run up steep terrain or jump over obstacles.
To learn more about cyclocross, check out our Cyclocross 101 featuring video clips from the 2003 race.
What is the Verge New England Championship Cyclocross Series?
The Verge New England Cyclocross Series is a six-race series of internationally sanctioned events where competitors from all over the US & Canada compete for points
What is the North American Cyclocross Trophy (NACT)?
The North American Cyclocross Trophy (NACT) created in 2008, is comprised of “the classic cyclocross races” of North America. Each race on the tour has a long history and represents the essence of the sport. Overall series prizes totaled over $7,000 in addition to daily prize totals making it the richest cyclocross series outside of Europe.
