Fridays in June and July, Park & Play sets up at a unique location including Lawton Park, The Old Fort and others, creating a hub of excitement and entertainment. These events are not just about playing and having fun—they also aim to educate and promote healthy lifestyles. From “Mad Scientist” to “Blast from the Past,” Funtastic Fridays have something for everyone!

Parents and guardians love these events just as much as the kids do. It's a perfect opportunity for them to relax and socialize while their children have a blast. Many bring picnic blankets and chairs, setting up little spots to watch the action or join in on the fun. The atmosphere is always lively, filled with laughter and the sound of happy chatter.

The success of Park & Play events is evident in the growing number of attendees each week. Families mark their calendars and look forward to these gatherings as a highlight of their summer. The positive feedback from the community has encouraged Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation to expand and improve these events.

The Park & Play events, especially "Funtastic Fridays," are a testament to the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department's commitment to fostering community spirit and providing wholesome, enjoyable activities for all ages.
