<p class=MsoNormal>Note to athletic field users, friends, and families: In 2008
we received at least one warning per season regarding dogs and beer on the
fields. <i>If further infractions occur we risk losing access to the
fields. </i> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Dogs are not allowed at organized athletic fields, beaches,
or children's play areas in Seattle, Shoreline, and Redmond parks. They are
welcome on leash everywhere else in the park system, and there are other
off-leash areas where they can romp without leashes. <i>Please leave
Fluffy at home on game days.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Alcohol not allowed at organized athletic fields, beaches,
or children's play areas in Seattle, Shoreline, and Redmond parks.
Drinking beer is allowed at many fine taverns and restaurants across King
County. <i>Please leave the alcohol at home on game days.</i><o:p></o:p></p>
