I have always loved fall.

Although it means an end to lazy days by the pool, it also means cooler weather and football season are just around the corner.

As the kids return to school, daylight hours shorten, and preparations for the holidays begin, it is important to remember to find time to play. Doing recreational activities that you enjoy has many benefits. It relieves stress, improves brain function, boosts creativity, keeps you feeling energetic, and creates an overall effect of well-being.

Play Frisco offers many ways for you to play in the fall. You can visit a local park, take a walk on a trail, visit a natural area, attend a special event, or become a member of the FAC to reach your fitness goals.  Whether you like to play actively, socially, naturally, or artistically, Play Frisco has something for you.

Come find your play in Frisco!

Learn to Swim - Parent & Child

The purpose of the Parent and Child Aquatic program is to help young children become comfortable in and around the water so they are ready to learn to swim. While the class is designed to raise the comfort level of the child, it is also intended to educate the parent or caregiver in basic water skills so they are better equipped to aid in their child's aquatic education and ensure that their child stays safe in all water activities. Children two to three years will be introduced to equipment used in preschool lessons and will work with instructors on taking individual direction to help transition from parent and child to preschool swim classes.

GO FISH!

Frisco has nine great fishing ponds to cast a line! Reel some fish in at one of our stocked ponds like Frisco Commons or Northeast Community Park, or try your luck at one of

our natural ponds such as Cottonwood Creek Greenbelt or 1135 Wildlife Preserve. Remember: anglers 17 and older must have a fishing license to fish in our public ponds. PlayFrisco.org/Fishing

PRESERVATION & CONSERVATION

On May 12, 2022, biologists from Texas Parks & Wildlife conducted a survey of two of our stocked fishing areas: Vial Lake at Warren Sports Complex (pictured above), and the pond at the Frisco Athletic Center. The survey found that both ponds had healthy populations of largemouth bass. We're encouraged by the report's findings and we plan to conduct more fish surveys in the future!

The Natural Resources Division is committed to maintaining healthy aquatic ecosystems and providing quality fishing opportunities for Frisco residents and visitors!
