Albany Parks & Recreation and the Albany Democrat-Herald will host picnics for the public in four parks this summer. City Councilors and Parks & Recreation Commissioner are invited to attend to encourage dialogue and to answer questions.

Parks & Recreation will conduct interactive survey for neighborhood residents, followed by games with prizes. Displays of Parks & Recreation programs and services and staff from sports, parks, the pools, children’s programs, and adult programs will be on hand to answer questions. Staff will host activities for kids.

Those who attend are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and enjoy a barbeque and drinks provided by Pepsi. These events are a great way to get to know your neighbors, to pass along ideas and enquire about the Parks & Recreation offerings.
