NRPA launches community E-Newsletter – Tip-Off – Brief Article
The beginning of the year unleashed a new face for the National Recreation and Park Association with the advent of” its Community Sports & Health E-Newsletter. Every month, the e-newsletter will feature resources and information to help park and recreation officials become more efficient, and expose them to new insights into the industry. “We look forward to a year of learning, sharing and achieving through parks and recreation,” says Jennifer Hoyeh community outreach specialist and coordinator of the e-newsletter.
Some highlights of the e-newsletter include a breakdown of programs, partnerships and potential presentations such as the Hershey’s Track and Field Youth Programs, which introduces children ages 9-14 to physical fitness through basic track and field events; SGMA Summer Fund Softball, which is designed to entice kids outside for co-ed softball games; Let’s Play Sports, which is a youth sports program; Tennis Welcome Centers, which gives national attention to your tennis programs through an agreement with the United States Tennis Association; and many more programs aimed at all sports including golf, basketball and football.
