On Saturday, May 18, the City of Everett hosted the annual Kids to Parks Day event at Swan Street Park.
Hundreds of residents of all ages joined in this nationally recognized initiative that seeks to get youth and families outside and off their electronic devices to utilize and enjoy their community’s recreational resources, parks and playgrounds. Celebrated on the third Saturday of May every year, the event featured various activities, interactive games, inflatable attractions, characters, face painting, music and more for all to enjoy.
“I want to thank all the volunteers and organizations that participated, and everyone who came,” said Mayor DeMaria. “I’m happy that we were able to offer this fun event for all the children and families of our community.”
