Volunteer Recreation and Parks and Nature Councils

In cooperation with the Department of Recreation and Parks, Recreation and Parks and Nature Councils establish and operate programs for which local need and interest is expressed. Each Council also sponsors special events such as picnics, parties, parades, contests, performances, art shows, etc. for the benefit of the local community.
