This is co-published through a partnership with the Cleveland Parks & Greenspace Coalition and the Trust for Public Land (TPL). The coalition, a group of Cleveland residents and organizations, advocates for an equitable parks and recreation system and supports resident-led stewardship and activation of city parks. TPL works to connect all Ohioans to the outdoors through land conservation, parks, trails and schoolyards. This article is written by Kimberlee Welch, fellow for the coalition. This is specifically for City of Cleveland parks, not Metroparks.
There have been a lot of changes to Cleveland parks and recreation over the past two years, including the creation of a standalone Department of Parks & Recreation. The new department is moving full steam ahead – from updating the process for reserving a park shelter to creating a new summer pool dashboard with daily updates.
With change comes opportunity, so consider this your chance to ask the Cleveland Parks & Greenspace Coalition questions about parks and rec.
What are your questions about parks and rec, green spaces, and stewardship in Cleveland?
The Cleveland Parks & Greenspace Coalition will answer these questions as part of our Park Action Guide series, created in partnership with Signal Cleveland.
