(Fargo, ND) -- This July, officials are asking the public to join the Fargo Park District, Moorhead Parks & Recreation, and West Fargo Park District, as they celebrate the essential role of park and recreation in providing services that are vital to a healthy metro.
Throughout the month of July, the Fargo Park District, Moorhead Parks & Recreation, and West Fargo Park District are celebrating Park and Recreation Month through a joint event on Facebook. Follow along to learn more about your local parks, recreation program offerings, and win Park Pack Prizes.
Park and Recreation Month is a national initiative of the National Recreation and Park Association to promote building strong, vibrant and resilient communities through the power of local parks and recreation agencies. According to the NRPA, six in seven U.S. adults look forward to outdoor activities this summer and various research studies are confirming that community parks and recreation, green spaces and time outdoors are critical for creating healthy, active and sustainable communities.
Parks are at the center of so many experiences and memories. 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.
