As American Rivers listed the 981-mile Ohio River as the 2nd most endangered river in the U.S., advocates are educating and lobbying the U.S. Congress to authorize permanent and dedicated funding for the ecological restoration of the Ohio River and its tributaries.

@ecowriterohio Remarkably resilient at 94 years. That's encouraging for other elders who have contracted Covid.

@NPRinskeep A must read, Steve Inskeep. President Lincoln's understanding and practice of strategical compromise is off the charts. Today's lawmakers should take note.

The 2023 NRPA Conference in Dallas is a wrap, but the energy and passion for the positive impact parks & recreation has on people of all ages and abilities is amplified as we return to our communities to do our important work. Thanks to all who made #NRPAConference2023 a success!

@DJROY207 @StanfordWVB @WellsFargo I can't believe that Louisville lost the series against #5 Stanford. The Cardinals were dominant - at home - the first 2 sets. It's a shocker!

@NRPA_news There are so many takeaways. Parks and recreation agencies across the country feature community gardens and youth gardens where kids learn how to plant vegetables, herbs and fruits, learn about nutritional values and connect with and supply their community farmer's market.

@NRPA_news Thanks NRPA for being the collective voice of the parks and recreation profession and parks and recreation professionals across the country.

@bbbkyin @ParksAllianceLu While public parks are for all....all do not have equitable access to local parks. #BBBCharitySealHolder is a well deserved honor for @ParksAllianceLu The developing Alberta Jones Park in Louisville's California Neighborhood exemplifies the Parks Alliance's commitment to equity.
