One of my favorite guides to work on and to update each year is this guide: Park & Recreation Month Guide.
This
is part one of a three-part blog series about this guide. It is a fun
guide to look at park and recreation resources, and to view embedded
videos, and to explore links and much more.
This year's theme is Where Community Grows. We celebrate parks and recreational venues for physical
health, for mental well-being, for access to play, and for our
community!
A new page on the guide is Standing Stone State
Park located near Cookeville. We have new pictures submitted by the library
staff. Also on the guide is a page titled Local Parks Website where
local parks in Hamilton County and Chattanooga are located. On the home
page are websites for nearby state parks outside of Hamilton County.
In
my senior year in high school, I decided to take what I thought was an
easy course called Recreational Sports. It wasn't easy. I learned how to
play racquetball & volleyball, how to bowl, do archery, practice
rifle target shooting; and I learned slow pitch softball, trampoline
tricks, rappelling, golf, and disc golf. Those recreational lessons are
still with me today.
Use the information in the guide to find a
park near you! As always each year, there are pictures submitted by the
library staff that can be viewed -- more about the KLIC staff pictures
in part two of the blog series!
Check out the feature pages of Red Clay,
Hiking Trails, and the Head of Sequatchie River. Here you
can find websites for local hiking trails and a national trail database.
The Sequatchie River exits a cave at full force on its journey to the
Tennessee River. Red Clay is a historic park about the last Cherokee councils
