The Salt Lake City Public Lands Department is excited to launch "Be Wild" - a campaign aimed at creating a more aware, empathetic, and collaborative outdoor community. Beyond just following the do's and don'ts of park rules, we want to encourage individuals to think about their impact when recreating in shared spaces.

Our diverse parks and open spaces offer a range of experiences, and it's important to consider how we can work together to care for each other and these public lands. This summer, we invite you to share your thoughts and feedback on Be Wild and help us build a more welcoming community.

Get involved by emailing us at PublicLands@slcgov.com or chatting with one of our Park Rangers. Let's be wild, but also be responsible and respectful to the spaces we share.

Exciting news! The City is planning to incorporate pickleball into Glendale Regional Park. As part of the planning process, we want to hear from you about how you would like to see it integrated into the site.

There are currently eight tennis courts at the park, and we are exploring two options for adding pickleball courts.

• Option 1 is to add four new pickleball courts to the park, west of the tennis courts.
• Option 2 is to repurpose four of the existing tennis courts into at least six pickleball courts while leaving four tennis courts open for tennis.

We want your input on which option you prefer. To share your thoughts, please take our survey.

Thank you for helping us make Glendale Regional Park even better!

We have some exciting news to share with you regarding the basketball court! Beginning the week of August 7th, the old court will be undergoing reconstruction. We're demolishing the old court and installing a brand new concrete court with upgraded standards, fencing, and seating areas.

We're aiming for a grand opening this fall, and we can't wait to show you the finished product! Keep an eye out for future updates and get ready to hit the courts with renewed energy and enthusiasm.

Thank you for your patience as we make these exciting improvements. We can't wait to see you at the new and improved Liberty Park basketball court!

We're thrilled to report that our first-ever Salt Lake City Drone Shows were a huge success! Thanks to all who participated. Please take a few moments to fill out our survey to help us improve the event and make it even better next year.

Additionally, we'd like to remind you that our Yoga in the Park sessions at Pioneer Park continued throughout July, offering a fantastic opportunity for relaxation and wellness. We also had our Outdoor Movie Series at Liberty Park every Friday night. And last but not least, we held another Yappy Hour event at Liberty Park, which provides a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere for dog lovers to enjoy.

Thanks for being a part of our community events and making Salt Lake City a great place to be.
