“What an honor for the Parks & Recreation Department to receive the Agency of the Year Award from GRPA,” says Mayor Tony Paulk. “It is an outstanding achievement to be recognized by the agencies in District 2 for the department’s efforts to promote leisure opportunities in our community that enhances our quality of life.”
