ROMEOVILLE, IL — Wiggly Field Dog Park, which is part of the new Romeo Crossing Park project, will have a grand opening on Aug. 12.

The 7-acre dog park, at 400 W. Romeo Road, includes two fenced areas, one for small dogs and one for large dogs; shelters and benches for relaxation; water fountains with pet bowl; a phase 1 agility course; and waste disposal bags and receptacles, according to the Village.

The dog park requires a membership or a daily pass, and annual memberships are available now at the Romeoville Recreation Center, 900 W. Romeo Road.

The dog park will be open from dawn to dusk, 365 days a year.

An additional agility course at the dog park is planned for the next phase of the park development, according to the Village. Construction for phase 3 of the park started this summer.

Phase 3 will include a fully accessible adaptive sports field, playground, fitness space, two shelters, restrooms and a parking lot.
