NATIONAL PARK & RECREATION MONTH 2023
This July, follow Davenport Parks and Recreation’s social media platforms (Facebook and Instagram)to
celebrate National Park and Recreation Month and learn how parks and
recreation enhances the growth of our community through recreation
programs, activities, and park amenities and is an essential part of a
healthy, happy life and a thriving, connected community.
Join us this month to “find your fun” and support your local parks
and recreation professionals. Get involved in outdoor activities this
month including nature and garden programs, community events, library programs in parks, and Vander Veer Botanical Park’s summer theme scavenger hunt. You can also download the Park and Recreation Month calendar for a listing of events and programs at a glance.
Park and Recreation Month is an initiative of the National Recreation and Park Association
(NRPA). NRPA encourages people who support parks and recreation to
share how they have experienced growth through parks and recreation, as
well as why parks and recreation professionals are important to them,
with the hashtag #WhereCommunityGrows. To learn more about National Park
and Recreation Month, visit nrpa.org/events/july.
