What's King County's S.O.D.A.? Hint, it's not a soft drink!

S.O.D.A., serve our dog areas, is an organization devoted to open spaces for our four legged friends in King County.  It’s an organization with a 20 year history and was created to help save the off-leash area of Marymoor Park.  The SODA members worked hard for a number of years before the county council voted in 1995 to keep the off-leash area.

 Today, SODA has taken on the responsibility of stewardship for Marymoor’s off-leash area.  The organization is now a non-profit group dedicated to responsible usership of the park by dogs and their owners.  SODA members volunteer time to make sure things are taken care of at the park.  You can thank the SODA volunteers for building fencing, trails, bridges, providing pickup bags and sani-can service. 

 Imagine:

 15,000 volunteer hours

$328,000 raised

600,000 visits per year

1600 visits a day

If you are a dog lover and your dog uses Marymoor Park, SODA needs you.  Please volunteer your time or give a small donation to keep the group and the dog park vibrant and alive.

 Thanks to SODA volunteers for all their hard work over the years.
