There are certainly a myriad of different benefits that can be accrued from participation in recreation or visits to parks and open space. It can be a walk in the woods for a world-weary adult. It can be the sense of exhilaration for the six year old who connects bat to ball for the very first time. It can be the positive feeling of exhaustion that retired volunteers feel at the end of a day. Or it might be that intangible sense of connection people feel when gathered with others enjoying the annual fireworks display. We can relax and enjoy the beauty of a sunset. We can spend time with family or friends. We can experience new activities and opportunities. There is an almost limitless number of benefits that can be found within such experiences. Most of these values and benefits Summer within one of four major categories: individual, community, environmental, and economic. Opportunities for living, learning, and leading full and productive lives as well as avenues for people to experience purpose, pleasure, health, and well being. Essential by creating opportunities to live and interact with families, work groups, neighbors, communities, and the world. Providing and preserving parks and open space enhance the desirability of an area as well as contributing to the health and safety of its inhabitants. Not mere expenditures by investment in the future for the viability of people and places.
