Since 1985, America has celebrated July as the nation’s official Park and Recreation Month. Created by the National Recreation and Park Association , Park and Recreation Month specifically highlights the vital and powerful role local park and recreation professionals, such as our staff at Marietta Parks, Recreation & Facilities, play in building stronger, more vibrant and more resilient communities all across the country. Parks are at the center of so many experiences and memories — 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 life’s special moments, spots of respite and healing, sites that connect us with essential community services, and so much more.
Come join us on Thursday, July 14th, 4:00PM - 7:00PM, in Glover Park on the Marietta Square as we celebrate July is Park & Recreation Month. There will be music, games & fun activities for all ages.
Thank you Marietta for all your support throughout the years! We look forward to providing you with many more years of fun & health.
