Parks and Recreation Month 2023, as well as all accompanying events, have concluded. We are excited to see what is in store for 2024!
Park And Recreation Month 2023 - Where Community Grows
Help us celebrate Park and Recreation Month to promote building strong, vibrant and resilient communities through the power of parks and recreation and to recognize the more than 160,000 full-time park and recreation professionals — along with hundreds of thousands of part-time and seasonal workers and volunteers that maintain our country’s local, state and community parks.
Where Community Grows - Croc Walk!
Bring your family and friends and grab your Crocs (or comfy walking shoes) and join us at Ritter Park for the Croc Walk on July 28! Stroll along the beautiful Swift Creek Greenway on this family-friendly walk. After your walk get a jibbitz for your Croc and a family goodie bag. Then enjoy a night of music, yard games, and a special cold treat from Kona Ice. Don't worry about cooking dinner! Death By Taco and Pickin' N' Que'n food trucks will be onsite to purchase food for a delicious dinner! Registration is required and limited. To register, visit carync.gov/register.
