July is less than two months away and we are gearing up for an action-packed Park and Recreation Month. In this issue, you will not only find the annual Park and Recreation Month poster, but also a comic book featuring our favorite superheroes — The Park and Rec Brigade! 

Hang the poster in your facilities, take pictures with it and post on social media using #SuperJuly. Share the comic book with your community members and summer camp kids! Need more copies? Download the materials, personalize them and get them printed by a local vendor. 

We’ve got a host of events lined up for July, including recognition of our superheroes of parks and recreation, contests and more! Next on our super agenda? Public voting for our Park and Recreation Month Cover Contest. Head to our Facebook page May 23-27 to vote for your favorite finalists.
