The Parks and Recreation Summit is a unique way to learn from directors who do exactly what you do. And you get to do it all at no cost to you or your system.

APRIL 29 - MAY 1, 2024 | TUCSON, ARIZONA

You’ll Be Amazed at What You Can Accomplish in 48 hours

Over 48 hours, you are going to meet with parks and recreation directors from all over North America. You are going to learn what is working for them and what isn't. And they will be looking for you to share the same. Beginning the moment you step off of the plane, you are going to meet new colleagues, you are going to make new friends and you are going to get to know the senior people behind the products and services that make your system run optimally.

A Custom Agenda Based on Your Needs

The Parks and Recreation Summit team reviews your application to understand more about you, your system and how we can support your initiatives. Based upon your application and then a selection process that you drive, we develop a custom agenda that introduces you to the people you are interested in meeting, and who are interested in meeting with you. You are going to spend two days in interactive and topical meetings, meals and social functions. As a result, you are going to learn more in 48 hours than you ever thought was possible!

What’s The Catch?

There is none. You are going to meet with others who do what you do and who can help you. You are going to meet with others you can help. You are going to meet with suppliers. And you are going to do it in a way that meets your needs, all at no cost to you or your system.

To be eligible, you must direct, manage or be a decision-maker in a parks and recreation system serving a community of 40,000 or greater. You should have challenges that you are interested in sharing, a willingness to help others and a desire to learn about products or services that can help you in the next 6 to 18 months.

Don’t take our word for it…

SEE WHAT INDUSTRY LEADERS LIKE YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE PARKS AND RECREATION SUMMIT.

I was impressed with how organized and professional everything was. The vendors really came with the right approach and were extremely personable, and the location was perfect. I really enjoyed that seats were assigned at every meal and function, and that you varied the audiences – normally I don't like this type of thing, but in this instance I'm so glad you did and in hindsight it was invaluable to developing some relationships throughout the short two days (which is hard to do but it works)!
