June is Recreation & Parks Month

June brings us the longest days of the year and marks the beginning of summer! Join us as we celebrate with 30 days of activities and events catering to all!

This month is a time to focus on the benefits recreation and parks have on our physical, social and mental health. There are many ways you can get involved and be active! From acrylic painting, nature-themed crafts and coding, to dancing, swimming and (so many!) sports, there's something enjoyable for everyone to partake in!
