Book cover: Wisconsin's Outdoor TreasuresJuly is Park and Recreation Month. Get outside and enjoy the parks this summer! Wisconsin, and specifically Dane County, have some spectacular parks to visit.

Before you head out, come to the library to check out our resources on parks and outdoor activities. I recently checked out Wisconsin’s Outdoor Treasures to guide me to 150 natural destinations around the state. This book has parks broken up by regions of Wisconsin, making planning a breeze! Other library titles include:

Book cover: 60 hikes within 60 miles

We also have many titles on National Parks around the country.

You can also go to the City of Madison parks website to see the parks and events happening near you. Enjoy!
