How Quickly Do Spots Fill?
Fast! Summer is our busiest season for events and programs, so spots tend to fill quickly, especially for resident favorites like swim lessons, summer camp, and adult yoga. We recommend viewing our website and 2024 Summer Brochure (hard copy coming beginning of April and digital brochure available on March 25) prior to open registration and having all your favorite events and programs picked out ahead of time so you can enroll as soon as registration opens.

Parents Walking Club
Bring your kids/babies and join us for a free weekly walk, talk, and play! The goal of this group is to meet other parents in the neighborhood, socialize, build community and support, get a break from daily stresses and responsibilities, empower new parents to step out the door and adventure with baby, laugh, introduce your kids to new friends…all while getting physical exercise and fresh air for both parents AND little ones! We will meet weekly at rotating parks and will begin with a walk through the neighborhood and end at the same park meeting location so kids can play on the playground/in the park. Feel free to bring water, coffee to sip on, and snacks! This is a no pressure group where parents can come and go as they please or skip a meet up as we understand things come up, kids get sick, etc. This group is open to all ages, whether your kiddo(s) are in strollers or you have older kids who want to ride their scooter or bike and tag along! Weekly park rotation schedule will be determined and shared with parents via email after enrollment to ensure park meeting locations are tailored to the group in an effort to select parks that are closest to where everyone lives.
