- * Park is used as an illegal "dog park" - you may see dog owners letting their dogs off the leash. These off-leash dogs are disturbing to some other park users. One area near the creek that runs through the park seems to be where these violators congregate. It is important to understand that Leash laws prohibit dogs off-leash and that dogs swimming in Irondequoit Creek contribute to pollution of the creek because of the sediment that they stir up. This sediment damages creek fish populations.	+ * Park is used as an illegal "dog park" - you may see dog owners letting their dogs off the leash near the creek.
