It's finally summertime, and that means lots of opportunities for fun in the sun! Host Alexis King sits down with Laurie Chenevey and Jeff Mourton from Akron’s Recreation & Parks team to explore all the fun happening across our city this summer. 

From free park concerts and community‑center programs to pools, splash pads, youth camps, and beloved events like the Taste of Akron and Akron Art Expo — this episode is packed with ways to enjoy Akron all season long. Whether you’re looking for a place to cool off, explore, get active, or just enjoy time with neighbors, there’s something for everyone in Akron’s parks and community centers. 

Tune in to learn how to take full advantage of these offerings — and how Recreation & Parks helps make Akron a vibrant, connected place to call home.
