In the summer, the community can stay cool in the heat by visiting the Pacific Park Pool, one of the wading pools or splash pads in our parks, or visit any of the four community centers; parents can enroll their children in day camps for a fun and socially rewarding experience; people of all ages can participate in sports, fitness, and wellness classes that promote a healthier, active lifestyle; and, families can bond by having a picnic in the great outdoors while enjoying a concert in the park, marvel at the hundreds of classic cars on display at the annual Cruise Night event, or enjoy a camp fire program in the park.
In recognition of July as Parks Make Life Better! Month, the Community Services & Parks Department is inviting and encouraging those who live, work, and play in Glendale to visit our parks and special events, capture their visit with a selfie, and share it on social media for a chance to enter a prize drawing for a $50 gift card to a local restaurant/store as part of the #MyGlendaleParks Selfie Campaign.
