Roll up your sleeves, St. Louis Park, because the Park N' Play mobile recreation van is ready to bring summer fun directly to your local parks. Loaded with sports and gaming equipment, this roving beacon of amusement is your ticket to outdoor activity in the upcoming sunny months. Whether you're a basketball enthusiast or a frisbee aficionado, they've got you covered.
In what appears to actively engage the community, the City of St. Louis Park has released the van's eagerly awaited schedule, announcing stops across various parks throughout the week. From the laid-back, grassy expanses of Aquila Park to the active courts at Ainsworth Park, residents have ample opportunity to get out and enjoy some recreational playtime. According to a social media post from the City of St. Louis Park, Mondays and Tuesdays feature afternoon sessions, while Wednesday mornings start early at Wolfe Park, before heading over to Oak Hill Park after lunch.
The fun doesn't stop mid-week; Thursdays shake things up with a rotating site in the latter half of the afternoon—check their online schedule for this nomadic hot spot's weekly location. Evening hours turn Ainsworth Park into a basketball hub, complete with the Park N' Play van adding to the "Basketball in the Park" program. It's not all strict scheduling, though; the van promises to make surprise appearances at various city events throughout the summer, extending beyond the regular timetable to reach more people.
However, when the weather decides to play the ultimate spoilsport, the Park N' Play van parks itself away. In case of inclement weather, the city encourages residents to use discretion and reach out to the weather line at 952.924.2567 before venturing out. As the City of St. Louis Park's post states, "The Park N’ Play van won't be on-site in the event of bad or severe weather."
St. Louis Park residents, this summer promises to bring the neighborhood together with easy-going jump shots, friendly games of catch, and casual strolls to each pop-up play zone. So, keep your sport shoes ready and your game face on - the Park N' Play mobile recreation van is meeting you right where you are, all set to turn regular park visits into memorable summer days.
