 Join the fun this fall at a different Neighborhood Park around Evansville on Friday’s. The Department of Parks and Recreation is rolling out a mobile recreation program called Park-N-Rec.
Park-N-Rec will take place every first and third Friday of the month this fall between 3 to 5pm at different Evansville Neighborhood Parks. The first day of Park-N-Rec will be Friday, July 24th at Wesselman Park for a preview party.Â
Coming off of Summer Play Daze, Assistant Sports Director, McKenzie May said this is another opportunity for kids to still have fun after school. She said, “Park-N-Rec provides a variety of activities for families and children between the ages of 5 and 14 years to participate in. We will also have giveaways for children to win.â€Â
At each Neighborhood Park, there will be activities such as: yard games, dancing, arts and crafts, sport games, and much more.Â
Dates and locations for other Park-N-Rec days are:
August 7- Bellemeade Park
August 21- Garvin Park
September 4- Bayard Park
September 18- Howell Park
