More than one

individual, group or organization can adopt a park. Some parks have more

than one adoptee and each particular group may choose to do a clean up

at the beginning, middle or end of the month providing continual service.

Adoptees must

agree to pick up litter or debris such as paper, bottles, cans and small

branches once a month. Groups are recognized by an Adopt-A-Park sign at

the parks with the names of these individuals, organizations and businesses

for their hard work and contribution to help keep city parks looking the

best that they can all year round.

The Recreation

Department commends the support of these volunteers for continuing effort

in keeping this program going strong.
