The Solvang Skate Park 🛹 at Hans Christian Andersen Park will be undergoing repairs to address cracks and other safety concerns beginning Tuesday, September 8th, with work expected to continue through Friday, September 25th.

The project will be completed by CA Skateparks . While work is underway during the week, the crew will secure and clean up the site before each weekend so that the skate park can remain open on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the project. ❤

We wanted to give everyone a quick reminder to please keep your dogs on a leash at all times. 🐕
For the safety and enjoyment of all park users, all dogs must be kept on a leash at all times while visiting any City of Solvang parks. This requirement is pursuant to the Solvang Municipal Code, S.M.C. 8-1.2(E)(2).
❗ Warnings may be issued for violations and continued or repeated violations may result in citations. ❗

Reasons to keep your dog on a leash:
🐾 It's in the City Code.
🐾 It keeps you, your dog, and other dogs safe.
🐾 You are being considerate to those who may be allergic or afraid of dogs.

Please also remember to clean up after your pet.
Thank you for helping keep Sunny Fields, Hans Christian Andersen, and Solvang Park safe, clean, and enjoyable for everyone.
