It's My Park is Back!

The friends of Red Hook Recreation Center are encouraging residents of the community to come support their local parks tomorrow, October 15th between 10Am and 2Pm. It's My Park Day has proven successful in the past, the last clean-up effort took place on October 7th, but there's still plenty to do and they'd love to have all hands on deck. Painting, cleaning, and gardening are just a few things they need help with. It's really fulfilling to be able to help out and beautify your local parks by putting your hands in the earth or picking up a paint brush, and to sweeten the deal the weather is looking pretty good so far. So come on out and pitch in. While you are there, 155 Bay Street, you are encouraged to check out the Rec Center facilities and programs!

It's My Park!

It's My Park Day is coming up on May 21st. The NYC Department of Parks and Recreation started the "It's My Park Day" in order for communities to coordinate activities and take charge of the well being of their parks. Carroll Park's activities, which include volunteer painting, weeding, planting, and mulching, will begin at 11AM and last until 3PM. After you've put in your time to beautify Carroll Park cool off and have some refreshments in the Park House. It's a great way to meet people in your community. Check out what's happening at your local park!
