Our Projects
The Friends of Georgetown Parks and Recreation partners with C3 to sponsor Two Step Inn. The festival has contributed nearly $200 million to the local economy, while the profits fund numerous parks and recreation programs.
Park Funding
Contributions over $1.3M were made for the purchase of new parkland. One purchase was for the future development of SE Park. This area is rapidly growing, and the investment aligns with the objectives of the Georgetown PARD Master Plan, which aims to provide more parks and open spaces. The other purchase was to expand San Gabriel Park.
Rec on the Go Van
Rec on the Go is a program that brings activities and games to local neighborhood parks. The Friends of Georgetown Parks & Recreation purchased a dedicated van for $70,000 to support these community events.
Parks and Recreation Scholarships
Fund $50,000 per year in scholarships for recreation activities, assisting residents with recreation memberships, classes, and program fees.
Swim Lessons
Provided swimming lessons to over 1,000 Boys and Girls Club participants. Coordinated and funded the transportation, instructors, and chaperones for twice-weekly lessons for 10+ years.
Movie Screen
Purchased $100,000 LED screen to support the Sunset Movie Series, an outdoor movie series held every summer in San Gabriel Park.
Tales on the Trails
Take a walk along the Randy Morrow Trail and enjoy a story along the way. A permanent installation was purchased for $5,000 in partnership with Friends of the Library.
