Welcome to PIDO.org

BARKTOBERFEST: PIDO's popular Halloween event was a huge success again! Thanks to Alpha Pet Supply, The Bark, Andronico's, and Catahoula Coffee for donating prizes and goody bags. Photos from Barktoberfest 2011 are now posted on our events page.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the dog park cleanup on Jan. 8. PIDO board members manned a table to tell people what the group does and why it's important for all users to band together, through PIDO, to protect the park. We received $64 in donations, sold $30 in merchandise, and gained four new members. With your help, the park is a nicer place to visit! ... Thanks also to those who participated in the weed pull on Jan. 14. We cleared the weeds along half of the Rydin Road parking lot fence. We'll finish up the fence line next time we meet, Feb. 11.

Please visit our News and Events pages for current info!

NEXT CLEANUP EVENT AT PT. ISABEL: Sun, Feb 19, 10am - 12pm
Please join us in maintaining Pt. Isabel as a beautiful park by picking up some extra poop. Meet by the bridge at the east end of the park. We'll also have PIDO T-shirts and sweatshirts, as well as our cool new keychain/whistle/flashlight combos, for sale at our information table. Cleanups are generally held on the third Sunday of the month. Rain cancels.

NEXT WEED PULL AT PT. ISABEL: Sat, Feb 11, 10am - 12pm
Has your dog ever gotten a foxtail in his paw, nose, or ear? Please help us pull foxtails and other weeds. Volunteers will receive a free PIDO tote bag! Bring gloves and weeding tools (no weed whackers); rangers will also have tools to lend out. Meet at the Rydin Road parking lot at the east end of the park. Come for an hour, half an hour--whatever you can spare. No experience necessary; we'll show you which are the "bad" plants. Weed pulls are generally held on the second Saturday of the month. Rain cancels.

NEXT PIDO BOARD MEETING: Thu, Jan 19, 6pm - 8pm
Members are welcome to come and relate any concerns. The next meeting is on Thursday, Jan. 19, at 6 p.m. at a private residence. E-mail info@pido.org if you'd like to attend.

PIDO has been working to keep Point Isabel clean and off leash since 1985. It is a nonprofit organization run entirely by volunteers, and your support is appreciated.
