August: The Best Month to Champion Your Park

O

n August 3, members of
Congress will head home
for the summer to connect with constituents for an entire month - a huge opportunity
for your agency. With a calendar
packed with exciting events and
activities, you've got tons of opportunities to invite
your members
of Congress
to join in on
the fun. Let
them see for
themselves
how
park
and
recreation agencies
are making their
home districts and states
happier, healthier, more economically vibrant places to live and play.
NRPA's Park Champion initiative
makes it easy to turn your summer
events into Park Champion events,
simply by inviting your members
of Congress! Our step-by-step
Park Champion Advocacy Toolkit
(www.nrpa.org/our-work/advoca
cy/Park-Champions/park-champi
on-advocacy-toolkit/) has draft
invitations, contact information
for all members of Congress' office schedulers and helpful tips on
how to plan a successful site visit.
If you have an exciting summer
program, ribbon cutting, park dedication or special summer event,
don't forget to invite your members of Congress!
Head on over to www.nrpa.org/
park-champions to get started!
Reach out to Jayni Rasmussen, advocacy and outreach manager, at
jrasmussen@nrpa.org for help with
invitations and event coordination.

This summer, you can make a huge
difference in the fight for the future
of parks and rec! Invite your mem-

bers of Congress out for a visit and
show them what parks and recreation means to your community.

SHOW CONGRESS

WHY PARKS MATTER

INVITE YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO YOUR PARKS
to show them the impact you make on your community.
