TEEN PROGRAMMING

Ziegler Park's mission to be a safe, clean, and welcoming space for everyone is realized all year through a diverse series of events that encourage positive activity in the park and provide unique resources for local teens ages 13-17.

 

This year, Ziegler park will produce monthy teen events aimed at building bonds of community, creating opportunities for advancement, and enhancing the safety of neighborhood adolescents. Teen-centric programming brings critical vibrancy to the park and resources to an underserved age group in our neighborhood.
