PIERCE COUNTY PARKS ADVENTURE GUIDE + CALENDAR / WINTER 2020-21
WHAT’S NEW
Looking Ahead to the New Year! When special events were cancelled, we produced take-it, make-it opportunities, like Come Fly a Kite. An envisioned Harvest Festival turned into Haunted Headlights at Frontier Park. Our Specialized Recreation Facebook Page became our own version of The Talk. Just like you, we had to sit down and ask, what is safe? what is right? what is possible? And most of all, how do we continue to live, breathe, celebrate, connect and thrive in such a time as this?
Many people remember key years in their life for both good and bad reasons, and it’s doubtful that any of us will be forgetting 2020 any time soon. While most look forward to leaving 2020 (and COVID-19) in the rear view, I am grateful that I can look back on 2020 with pride as well. The Pierce County Parks team is an amazing group of people who never stopped serving you despite the challenges we faced together. When the stay home-stay local order hit, we responded with strategies to deal with escalating use of our trail system and how to keep children off playgrounds designed to inspire them to climb!
