July is National Park and Recreation Month, and we are excited to celebrate with you! Parks and Recreation plays a vital role in our community’s health, well-being, and quality of life, and this month, we have a fantastic lineup of programs and events designed to bring us all together.

Throughout the month, we will be offering special FREE events, outdoor activities, fitness challenges, and family-friendly programs at our local parks and facilities. Whether you enjoy hiking, swimming, fitness classes, or simply spending time outdoors, there will be something for everyone to enjoy.

Parks are for everyone, and your participation makes our community connected and stronger. We look forward to celebrating with you this month and beyond. You can check out more information on these programs below!
