Midtown Parks is a 501(c)(3) that aims to increase health and community engagement by investing in seven of Midtown’s parks: Fremont Park, Marshall Park, Muir Park, Sutter’s Fort, Truitt Bark Park, Washington Park, and Winn Park. Midtown Parks supports this mission by creating centrally located public spaces that provide opportunities for recreation, leisure, and to build relationships with neighbors. Parks and open spaces encourage active lifestyles and promote social interaction, which are essential components of enhancing physical and mental health.
All four parks hosting Fresh Air: Midtown Parks classes provide a green space in the densely populated yet easy-to-navigate central grid. Transportation options include hourly street parking, SacRT bus & light rail, rideshare, as well as walking and biking.
