Celebrating Parks and Recreation Month with the city

The month of July is National Parks and Recreation Month. The City of St. Cloud Parks and Recreation is holding a month-long scavenger hunt. Keys will be hidden every Monday, Wednesday and Friday – five keys per day (limit of one key per person). To find a key, follow The City of St. Cloud, Fl. on Facebook and look for the daily clue/riddle of where the key is hidden. Take a picture of your adventure and tag #itstartsinparks on social media. Bring your key to the St. Cloud Civic Center, 3001 17th St. and claim your prize!

All ages may participate. For questions, call 407-957-7243. Good luck!

Politics in the Barn, presented by the City of St. Cloud, St. Cloud Chamber and OUC, the Reliable One will be on July 13 from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at the St. Cloud Community Center (3101 17th St.). This is an opportunity to meet and greet this year’s political candidates, enjoy dinner and participate in a straw poll.

The fee is now $30. For tickets register at www.stcloudflchamber.com.

Helping Hand Community Counseling (HHCC) will present a Back-to-School Extravaganza and Giveaway on July 23 from 5-6:30 p.m. The group needs 10 more business sponsors to partner with them.
