Reservation Form NOTICE No pets are allowed inside the fenced baseball and softball diamond at the community park, with the exception of service animals. Damage to the fields and failure to pick up animal waste despite signs posted in the parks has led the Park Board to this decision. In addition, the town of Remington has a tethered animal ordinance and allowing pets off leash, even inside the diamonds, violates this ordinance. Thank you, Remington Park Board
