Parks
PRVWSD owns and operates three large, day-use parks, which feature comfort stations, picnic shelters, open spaces, and various other amenities. The importance of open space parks such as these facilities helps ensure the connection to nature is not lost. The widespread use for public events and individual recreation highlights the need for unstructured outdoor spaces that can adapt to community needs.
