Park Trends Unleashed: Insights from NRPA 2024

Join CivicPlus® for a live discussion about the latest trends and insights presented at the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) annual conference and explore new ways to create vibrant and sustainable park systems.

Thursday, November 7, 2024 1 p.m. CT (2 p.m. ET | Noon MT | 11 a.m. PT)

Attend the Live Discussion

The NRPA annual conference is a great opportunity for the parks and recreation community to come together and discuss new strategies for strengthening their communities. Not only will CivicPlus® be there — we’ll be hosting a live webinar the following week to share what we learned at the event.

Created specifically for municipal park and recreation professionals, this webinar will feature conference highlights and key learnings from various education sessions and discussions. We’ll also explore the latest product launches and tools purpose-built to help you boost productivity and improve resident engagement.

If you can’t make the NRPA annual conference, or you’re just hoping for a comprehensive overview of the presentations, don’t worry: we’ve got you covered.
