Paint the Parks
Paint the Parks has officially completed its first full year, transforming 12 of our parks with vibrant, community-driven art! As we head into a new year, we’re excited to expand the program, revisit past projects, and add even more color and creativity to our parks! Our next opportunity will be at Capehart Gymnasium on July 23rd!

70 Acts of Service
As we celebrate 70 years of parks, programs, and community impact, North Highlands Recreation & Park District (NHRPD) is marking this milestone with a year-long initiative focused on giving back: 70 Acts of Service.
This campaign is our way of saying thank you to the community that has supported us since 1955 — by continuing to invest in what makes North Highlands a great place to live, work, and play.
NHRPD will lead extra activities and service projects throughout the year to uplift our parks and neighborhoods — and we invite community members and local businesses to join in! Whether it’s picking up litter, helping a neighbor, supporting a nonprofit, or volunteering your time, every good deed counts.
Email your act of service to recreation@nhrpd.org.
