Why is having a safe, clean, well maintained and healthy park essential? What do individuals surveyed about parks they enjoy have to say and share- about the impact of their neighborhood park making life better?

“PLAY
Safe, outdoor space”

“For us, the biggest benefit is a safe, outdoor play space for our kids today... and as they grow.”

“NATURE
Beauty and serenity”

“Being in nature makes me feel alive. I feel lucky to have this beautiful, serene place so close to home. I want my grandkids to have the same appreciation for parks.”

“EXERCISE
Healthy movement”

“Parks are made for moving at my own pace –- our family walks, plays and cycles. The recreation programs make it easy to stay healthy.”

“POSITIVE SPACES
Free-time fun”

“My neighborhood park is more than a place to chill. It keeps me thinking straight and away from trouble. It’s free -- and it’s really fun.”

“GATHERING PLACES
Socializing and learning”

“Parks are like holidays, bringing us together to share good times. They are the common ground that connects us all.”

“FOREVER
Valued today and always”

“Parks enrich our lives. They add value to our homes and neighborhoods. Individually and as a community, we’ll always have that need.” (CPRS- “Parks Make Life Better!” Campaign)

Our elected officials must prioritize constituents essential need for safe, clean, and well run parks…we NEED these places for the open space, the beauty of nature, and recreation opportunities. 

Today and for future generations of park users.
