It’s time to deck the halls and plan your holiday season in Bryan! We’ve gathered a list of holiday festivities to add to your calendar.
Explore the outdoors for Park and Recreation Month
July is Park and Recreation Month, a campaign led by the National Recreation and Park Association to bring awareness to efforts that parks and recreation provide. This year’s theme is “We Rise Up,” highlighting the value that parks and recreation professionals bring each day to advocate for their community’s health and well-being. Dedicated to preserving green spaces and community programming, we want to highlight the City of Bryan’s Parks & Recreation Department. So, let’s dive into the many ways Parks & Recreation impacts our community.
Green Space
Covering more than 2,400 acres and 53 properties, Parks & Recreation maintains, manages and plans new green space development. Thanks to their dedication to providing great spaces in Bryan, you can work on your kickflip at Williamson Skate Park, get social with your pup at Morris “Buzz” Hamilton Memorial Dog Park, stroll along the Park Hudson Trail or set up your hammock at Sue Haswell Memorial Park. From baseball fields to playgrounds and everything in-between, Bryan is sure to have a space for you!

Aquatics
With three pools and three splash pads located around town, there are ample ways to cool off and splash around this summer! Each pool brings its own amenities and services, but the main event is the Bryan Aquatic Center (BAC). Open year round, BAC features an Olympic-sized heated pool, two waterslides, the only public diving board in the area, a zero-depth beach entry area perfect for families and plenty of space for the whole family to bask in the sun! The pool is available for rent after hours and on a first-come, first-served basis. For a little more structured fun, check out Parks & Recreation’s aquatic programs throughout the year from swimming lessons to fitness classes and swim team.
