Dog walking in Beavercreek

Alpha

The packed neighborhood of Alpha is a residential community outside of the central part of the city. Inside the area is an open space known as Shoup Park. The park has a large area open to park-goers, surrounded by trees for shade and privacy. There are three soccer fields, a playground, a pavilion, a basketball court, and a pavilion for picnics.

Another park in the neighborhood is the Beavercreek Community Park, a more extensive park with an 8-mile walking trail, a fishing pond, a playground, and shaded sitting areas. Dogs do have to remain on a leash inside this park, and have access to water fountains, benches, and nighttime lights.
