Americans love spending their leisure time outdoors! Whether its youth or adult sports, a round of golf, biking, or just taking a leisurely stroll through the park, over 230 million Americans use municipal parks or other public green space facilities to maintain fitness and remain socially interactive. These facilities are critical to developing community cohesion and pride. Quality and access to public parks and green spaces continually rank very highly in Americans quality of life surveys and have been shown to be one of the top 3 reasons businesses use in making relocation decisions.

Municipal green spaces and other protected public lands also play a very important role in maintaining and improving our environment. Numerous studies have shown that these public green areas improve water quality, protect groundwater, alleviate flooding, improve the quality of the air we breathe, provide vegetative buffers to development, provide habitat for wildlife, and provide a place for families to connect with nature. It has never been more important to realize the significant environmental benefits of healthy turf grass within our communities than it is today.
