The City of Antigo is very grateful to an anonymous donor for $30,000.00 in funding for a new Dog Park. In addition, we are also grateful to the many pet owners in the community that showed a strong and organized interest in the park.
The Dog Park is located off of Century Avenue or the new Hwy 64 bypass (Address: 2000 Hwy 64). This area was formally a landfill, but has since been capped. It will now be utilized as space for owners and their pets to enjoy socializing and off-leash time within an expansive and beautiful fenced-in area.
The park features a separate small dog area (approximately 2 acres), various access gates to enter and exit the park, and various trails and open spaces which will be mowed throughout the summer season.

Yesterday's Sign Park display selected porcelain/enamel and neon signs from Dean Blazek's private collection that reflected the businesses that used to reside in Antigo. Signs on display are all the gasoline brands used to have stations in the city limits, Blatz and Schlitz beer, Rexall Pharmacy, Norge, and Frigidaire. At Christmas, the City of Antigo erected its Christmas tree in the park, and its lights blended nicely with the neon glow. If you’re visiting northern Wisconsin, adjust your travel plans so you arrive in Antigo just as it gets dark. That is when the lights of Yesterday’s Sign Park shine brightest. Located on the southwest corner of 5th Avenue and Clermont Street.
