Our park-based programs are designed to raise awareness and appreciation of park resources with the goal of increasing a sense of ownership of these vital public spaces. Our programs fall under the Healthy Parks Healthy People: Truckee Meadows initiative. The premise of this idea is that there is a direct relationship between the health of our parks and the health of community.

Truckee Meadows Trails Challenge

Dementia Friendly Nature Walks

These walks occur every Tuesday morning at Idlewild Park. They are an opportunity for participants to experience the changes of plants throughout the seasons.
