Spring is almost here! Soon, birds will be singing, flowers will be blooming, and the sun will be warm and inviting! What a great time to start thinking about getting outside and making the most of the alluring springtime season.

See what’s new at the Parks. This year, we’ve added some energetic, get-you-up-and-moving sports guaranteed to be a blast, while providing stress relief and exercise too. Check out Your Parks magazine or go online for more details about Adult Co-Ed Kickball, Adult Co-Ed Soccer, Fall Men's and Women’s Softball, Flag Football, and Lacrosse.

Go to our web site. There are many new and exciting things to see online at our website. Since it’s our goal to provide you with the latest, up-to-date information of all the happenings within the Parks Department – from new programs to sports registration deadlines, we’re now offering innovative ways to make that happen.

Use the Parks Your Way! Don’t forget to take a few moments to create your profile on our website. It’s an excellent way to learn about Park programs, sports, and hobbies that reflect you (and your family’s) interests.

We’re striving to make this a phenomenal year at the Parks Department. From toddlers to adults, the Parks offer something for everyone. We want this to be our best year yet, giving everyone a better Parks experience.
