July is Park and Recreation Month

July is Park and Recreation Month, so the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) encourages park and recreation agencies and their communities to share the stories, memories and experiences created in their local parks all month-long.

This year’s theme, “Our Park and Recreation Story,” honors the stories of how communities across the country are stronger, more vibrant and more resilient because of parks and recreation. Activities include writing a poem, downloading posters and producing a video.

Here are some of the best parks in Orlando, Jacksonville and Tallahassee — and tag your experience with #OurParkAndRecStory.
