About Gordon Gilmer and MacKenzie

Bring your furry friend to the Dog Park.
Bark Park History

The bark park was named after Gordon Gilmer, a former city councilor (’71–’99) before he retired from the Pike Township City-County Council.

Gordon played an instrumental role in helping Pike Township develop into a thriving area of growth for the city.

He saw the great influence Eagle Creek Park brought to the city’s northwest side, and sought to protect it by limiting development around the park.

The carved statue at the front of the bark park represents MacKenzie, his beloved yellow labrador retriever, which was updated in 2014 during a rededication ceremony celebrating its 15-year anniversary.
