No Animals at County Farm Soccer Complex
Caring for our pets and animals is a responsibility we all take to heart. We love and nurture our dogs, cats, and other creatures as members of our families. We don't want them to get hurt or be stressed out in an environment they aren't accustomed to.
That’s why Harrison County and SMSC ask that all pet owners please don't bring your animals to County Farm Soccer Fields.
