Parks & recreation professionals wear many hats. One of the most important “hats” is being a steward of natural areas. This stewardship is a vital responsibility impacting current visitors and future generations.
People need places to escape from the frantic pace of modern life. In fact, studies show spending time in nature has been proven to reduce stress, irritability, symptoms of anxiety & depression, and provide other health benefits.
Our parks and natural areas are one of the most important assets enjoyed by people of all ages. Caring for our parks inspires others to do their part to help the environment. 
The maintenance team is the eyes and ears of these natural areas. They care for the landscape, keep it clean, and ensure sites are safe. 
We are going to look at some of the ways that agencies and maintenance departments help protect the environment, preserve natural areas, and keep them beautiful for years to come.
