Leash up for safety: Protect your dog, wildlife, and our community
Watching your dog explore the natural world off-leash can be a joyful experience. However, it's important to remember that dog ownership comes with responsibility, too.
Superior's leash ordinance requires you to keep your pup leashed (unless you're visiting a designated off-leash area), but doing so is also the kind and neighborly thing to do!
Find out the reasons why leasing is so important in this article on the Town website.
And don't forget: You can take your pup to the Autrey Park Dog Park (1830 Honey Creek Drive) or the Central Park Dog Park (2560 Central Park Way) for some off-leash fun!
Please be aware that the dog park at Autrey Park will be closed for a period of time on Wednesday, June 17 while the Boulder County Youth Corps works on a project at the park. The closure will be indicated by temporary signage.

Keep it Clean Partnership reminds Superior residents to recreate responsibly this summer
Rain and melting snow pick up pollutants from our parks and trails and carry them into storm drains which drain directly into local waterways untreated. These are the same waterways where we swim, fish, and play during the summer.
You can protect yourself and our waterways while recreating by picking up after your pets, packing out solid human waste and toilet paper, and using mineral sunscreen when recreating in the water. When swimming in lakes and creeks, do not swim immediately after a rainstorm, and avoid getting water in your mouth, eyes, or open wounds. By recreating responsibly, you can protect water quality, aquatic life, and fellow community members.
Learn more through the Keep it Clean Partnership.
