Parks are at the center of so many experiences and memories ā moments that park and recreation professionals help make happen. Our local parks are often our first experiences in nature, our introduction to a favorite hobby or physical activity. They are places to gather with friends and family, spaces to celebrate lifeās special moments, spots of respite and healing, sites that connect us with essential community services, and so much more. July is the perfect time to see what your local parks and recreation have to offer and share your stories about what parks and recreation mean to you.
