RecDirect

Recreation Delivered Direct to Your Doorstep!

Looking for activities that promote health and wellness while also staying apart and distancing? Look no further than our RecDirect initiative!

In the coming months we are looking to add, develop, and implement recreational programs, initiatives, and events that get people engaged in unique and compelling ways. Be it scavenger hunts, progressional walking initiatives, or phone-based events it is our hope that during these uncommon times we can still be connected in and around our parks.

Be on the lookout for new information, postings, and regular events coming soon and stay safe and healthy!  

Fun for everyone and then some! Mayor Molder is inviting you to participate in The Holiday River Run 5K! No need to get out in a big crowd for this one, do it on your own time using the free STRAVA fitness app on your phone.
