If you would like reimbursement for your ticket, please email bambrisco@friendsofmetroparks.org At this time, we do not have plans to reschedule the event.

A collaborative effort between Summit Metro Parks and Friends of Metro Parks, Pathways to Parks provides inner-city children with access to our parks where they can learn and connect with nature. Proceeds from this event will enable us to continue to provide transportation scholarships, teaching kits, and other supplies for this important outreach program.

New for 2020, in cooperation with Summit County Metro Parks, we are launching Outdoor RX for Seniors 55 and up to enjoy a day filled with the healing powers of nature.

With your help, we can sustain and grow these programs!

Live music will be provided by Zach Freidhof.
