Did you know that Indy Parks is one of only three park agencies in Indiana that is CAPRA accredited? This accreditation is the highest standard for parks across the country with only around 200 accredited departments nationwide. Indy Parks was officially reaccredited earlier this year and yesterday our staff was recognized for that accomplishment at the National Recreation and Parks Association Conference in Atlanta.
