About the Parks Excellence Award

BC Recreation and Parks Association is pleased to host an annual Awards program that recognizes outstanding special events, programs, facilities, parks, and dedicated individuals whose ideas, innovation, and services make an impact in the recreation and parks sector.

The Parks Excellence award recognizes outstanding design and development of park spaces using natural elements or repurposing materials. The park space reflects community culture, which is accessible to all patrons, and encourages individuals and communities to get out into nature. The park positively impacts the well-being of the community and the recreation and parks sector.
