City Council designates July as Parks and Recreation Month

Clinton City Council has officially designated July as Parks and Recreation Month, a decision made during their brief meeting on July 1, 2025. This initiative aims to encourage residents to explore and enjoy the city's recreational facilities, which include newly upgraded pickleball courts and heated pools, all at no cost to taxpayers.

The council emphasized the importance of community engagement in local parks, especially with the upcoming July 4 celebrations, which promise to be a significant event for the city. Council members expressed their commitment to ensuring safety and preparedness for any potential challenges during the festivities.

The meeting, described as quick due to a lengthy budget process, also included the approval of minutes from previous meetings. Council member Daniel Rogals led the invocation, setting a tone of unity and direction for the discussions ahead.

As the city gears up for a vibrant month of activities, residents are encouraged to take advantage of the enhanced recreational offerings and participate in the July 4 celebrations, fostering community spirit and connection.
