91% Say Parks Are Essential—How Do You Enjoy Them?

Did you know that 91% of people agree that parks and recreation are essential services provided by local governments? That’s a pretty impressive number! But it also got me thinking… What role do parks and recreational spaces play in your life? How often do you take advantage of the parks and recreation offerings in your community? Have you ever thought about how your local government shapes the parks you use, or what might happen if those services were cut?

Sometimes it's as simple as a quiet walk through a park, a jam-packed weekend sports league, or just having a green space to take your toddler to blow bubbles. Parks mean something different to everyone. But what would your community look like without them?


Reflecting on this can help us understand just how important these services are — and how they contribute to our overall well-being. I’d love to hear your thoughts on how parks and recreation impact your life!
