'Happened to be in the area, was driving by, and decided to make an impromptu stop to walk "The Pack."

The park has two dog "Poop Bag" stations, which I was happy to see. Photo - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/north-orchard-park-vacaville?select=e8UsFzIIlCtE0Xo1Xwb7LA#Hz8b_x8fqfSIl2a1HTaoDwMy experience with the local parks has been hit & miss when it comes to poop bags, mostly miss. I've found that most cities that have bags available for the pubic to use, the less mess there is... 'Usually. (One of the stations was completely empty.) So, on that note, why all the dog sh*t @ this park? The city did its part, poop bags for everyone! So what gives people?! It's a dog, he eats & craps, and you're the owner, you feed him & pick up his "gifts," simple. Don't you clean up after your pet @ home?... Oh no, wait! You bring him here so you don't have to, you f*ktard! Gotta tell ya', people want to have pets but don't want to take care of them. That includes vet visits, feeding, training, exercising, and yes, picking up their sh*t. Having a dog is like having a small child but with a shorter life expectancy... 'And if things aren't working out you can always put'em down. (Unfortunately, you can't do the same with kids.) I'm kidding, you can, you just have to come up with a good, "They ran away," story coupled with a strong alibi. (I'm sorry, I digress.)When I saw all the dog crap throughout the park, it was disappointing... I've seen less sh*t @ a dog park. WTF?! The city gives you a decent park to walk, play, take the kids to, walk the dog... 'And people just seem to not appreciate the fact. Ingrates. There were a few parents with their small kids @ the playground and a handful of kids playing in the tennis courts... 'Riding around on their skateboards.The Park - 6.5 acre park includes two picnic tables, eight benches, a playground and tot lot, a backstop, four tennis courts, a half-court basketball court, two bicycle racks, a multi-purpose field, and jogging and bike trails.Source: City of Vacaville WebsiteOverall, an "Okay" park. I really like how they have a complete, separate "Tot Lot," for the wee small, rug rats just across the way.

However, I'm unsure how well they lit the park come evening. The grass was spotty in some areas, it could use some work & strong maintenance.
