Love Your Park! Help us keep our parks safe, beautiful, and welcoming for everyone. 💚🌳

Our parks are shared community spaces where families gather, children play, neighbors connect, pets explore, and memories are made every day. That's why it's important to keep motorized vehicles off park grounds. Driving on grass, fields, trails, and other park areas can cause costly damage, create safety hazards, and impact the enjoyment of these spaces for others.

We all play a role in protecting our parks. If you witness vandalism, property damage, unauthorized vehicle use, or any activity that may harm a park, please report it to 311. Your awareness and action help preserve these valuable community spaces for current and future generations.

Together, we can keep our parks clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone who visits.

What an incredible way to kick off this year’s Movies at the Park series!🎬✨

Hundreds of families gathered in the heart of Downtown El Paso at Cleveland Square Park for an unforgettable evening under the stars as we screened Zootopia 2.

From the moment the sun went down, the park was filled with laughter, excitement, and community spirit as friends, families, and neighbors came together to enjoy a night of free family fun.

Guests enjoyed complimentary snacks provided by the Office of District 8 Representative Chris Canales, refreshing lemonade courtesy of Raising Cane’s, and FREE Paninis provided by our friends at Telemundo 48 El Paso.

A huge thank you to our sponsors, partners, volunteers, and everyone who joined us for making our first Movies at the Park event of the season such a success. This is only the beginning—we can’t wait to bring more movie magic to parks across El Paso all summer long! 🍿🌟
