Do you have an interest in parks and open space?

We want to hear from YOU!

As your Assembly Member, I want to make sure the priorities, concerns, and ideas of our community are heard. That’s why we’re asking District 84 residents to take a few minutes to complete our Parks & Open Space Community Survey.

This helps our office direct resources and programming where our community wants it.

🏘️ Tell us what matters most to you.
💬 Share your experiences and concerns.
💡 Help identify park and open space programs.

📲 Take the survey today! bit.ly/d84-parks-survey

Thanks to Rob for volunteering for his first ever tree care & watering session in Joyce Kilmer Park yesterday! We worked over the mulch under many new trees & gave them 20 gallons of water each. Later Friday there was an additional deluge of water. Thanks Rob!

Is such a magical experience to practice yoga out in nature. Coupled with doing it in community, breathing moving and growing together it's pure nourishment.
