Garland will be celebrating National Park & Recreation Month throughout July and the city’s Parks & Recreation Department will host various opportunities for the city of Garland’s residents to Get Out & Play!
Nearly three in 10 U.S. adults do not spend time outside on a daily basis and of those who do, almost half spend less than 30 minutes in the fresh air, according to a survey released by the National Recreation and Park Association. That’s why this July, the city of Garland and NRPA are challenging everyone to get out and visit their community parks and recreation centers during National Park & Recreation Month.
To encourage everyone in Garland to Get Out & Play, the following free events are being offered this July to celebrate Park & Recreation Month – http://www.ci.garland.tx.us/gov/lq/parks/rec/events/july2016.asp.
