The City of Albertville invites you to Explore Your Parks Night! Hosted by City Staff and Albertville Parks Committee members, this annual event is an opportunity for residents to reconnect with their neighbors and the city’s parks. This year’s event will be held exclusively at Central Park and will feature a hot dog roast, public works equipment displays, and family entertainment. Everyone who attends the event will receive a Park Passport with a map of all of the City's 11 parks. Planted in each park will be a sign with a unique QR code that, when scanned with your smartphone, will provide access to a brief park survey. Those who complete surveys will be eligible to win a family prize basket. The more parks you visit, the greater your chances of winning!
