The dedication ceremony for the "Mangrove" Mike Forster Memorial Dog Park has been set for 3:30-5:30 pm on Sunday, January 18, 2026.Earlier this spring, the Council discussed dedicating the dog park at Founders Park in honor of the late Mike Forster. Following a public poll, the park will officially be named the "Mangrove" Mike Forster Dog Park.
Mayor Mahoney and Village staff are now planning a special dedication ceremony, which will include installing the pictured commemorative plaque at the main entrance and bench backrest to celebrate Mike’s legacy.
To make this tribute truly special, we’re inviting the community to help bring the celebration to life.
Donations are still being accepted and will directly support the ceremony and memorial features.
If you’d like to contribute, visit Centennial Bank and ask to donate to the “Mangrove Mike Dedication” account, or contact Mayor Mahoney for more information.
