Parks don’t succeed because they’re built well. They succeed because they’re stewarded well. This interactive session explores stewardship as social infrastructure. Participants will examine power dynamics shaping outcomes and co-create a Stewardship Starter Plan integrating financial health, advocacy, care, and succession to support resilient, community-supported places.

Park and recreation agencies often know they need an ADA Transition Plan but lack clarity on how to develop one that effectively guides accessibility improvements. This webinar explains Title II requirements and the “program access” standard as they apply to parks, trails, playgrounds, and recreation facilities. Participants will learn the key components of a defensible ADA Transition Plan, including barrier identification, prioritization, cost estimating, timelines, and public engagement to support safe, inclusive, and compliant recreation environments.

Play Frisco was created out of a simple but powerful realization: while the City of Frisco invests heavily in parks, programs, and facilities, play wasn’t always showing up as a daily habit for residents or even staff. The question shifted from “What do we offer?” to “Are people actually playing?” Building on the city’s broader vision for health, community connection, and quality of life, Play Frisco emerged as a unifying call to action; one that reframes play as essential, not optional. It was designed to be bigger than a program or campaign. Instead, it’s a mindset that encourages residents, employees, and leaders to intentionally create moments of play in everyday life. By aligning messaging, programming, and partnerships across departments, Play Frisco helps make play visible, accessible, and culturally expected. It invites everyone from staff to residents to visitors to community leaders to model and normalize play as part of what makes Frisco thrive. At its core, Play Frisco answers one simple question: Have you played today?
