Parks & Recreation’s Get Out & Play Initiative is designed around ‘action.’ This can mean a variety of things from sponsorship to volunteerism to participation. This initiative’s purpose is to make options available for businesses, families and individuals to be active in our community. With the rates of participation in our programs, businesses can reach a larger portion of consumers. Families and individuals can not only stay active and healthy but also assist their neighbors by volunteering in any number of available opportunities through Parks & Recreation. We urge you to be active in your community and get involved in this initiative! Remember to keep us in mind for any of your business, family or special event needs. Competitive rates are available for room rental at the Community Center and Ice Arena. We have wonderful birthday party packages and off season training space is available for your teams. Let us help you ensure that a special touch is put on your next event and your team is prepared for next season. If you have ideas on how to make our parks, programs and facilities even better I would love to hear from you, please contact me at 248.658.3470 or [email protected]. Please be sure to check that box entitled “Recreation Passport” when you renew your license tabs.
