IT'S MY PARK DAY SPRING Virtual Opportunities!

Saturday, June 5th from 9:00am to Sunday, June 13th, 2021 12:00pm (CT)

About

IMPD Spring this year will be a hybrid virtual in-person event! This is a unique opportunity to safely get out and explore our parks!

To earn your shirt you’ll need to complete 5 of the following activities. Each activity counts as one point toward your IMPD gear, but some have additional prizes. We ask that you upload documentation of your completed activities to this form in order to earn your shirt. All activity documentation forms are due on June 13th at 5pm, so be sure to take photos and screenshots as you complete your activities. You can automatically earn your t-shirt now by making a donation of $25 or more to Austin Parks Foundation. All this info is also available on the IMPD website.
