FROM THE MAYOR
Warmer weather is right around the corner, and I
don’t know about you, but I’m excited to get back
outside and take in the fresh air. There’s no better
place to enjoy the seasons than our parks. Wheth er
it’s taking a hike, fishing at one of our ponds or
riding a bike, there’s something for everyone. The
disc golf course at Simsbury Park is a great spot if
you’re up for learning something new. How about a
game of pickleball at the Taylor Tennis Courts? And
the Pickerington Community Pool is the best place to cool off after a long day. Can you locate all 10 fairy houses?
Inside this guide you’ll find information on all of this and more. Our Parks and More info on page 18.
Recreation Department has also developed a few ways for individuals,
organizations and businesses to give back to the community by helping make
our parks beautiful for years to come. If you are interested in donating a tree to
be planted in one of our parks or adopting a flower bed for the season, be sure
to reach out to park staff for more information. Lastly, after a hiatus in 2020,
the free movies and concerts in the park are coming back. Grab your blanket
and chairs and enjoy a night under the stars with your family.
Have a great summer, Pickerington! Mayor Lee Gray
