One week away from our next Parks with Pamela! Take a stroll with City of Riverside, Parks, Recreation and Community Services Director, Pamela Galera! 🚶‍♀️

📅 Thursday, July 25 • 8 - 9 a.m.
📍Shamel Park • 3650 Arlington Ave.

Children build confidence through performing and learning how to work together with others onstage. Just like when your child tries a new sport, they’re doing so much more than learning how to score a goal or throw a ball. They learn how to rely on each other for support, keep going even after making mistakes, and be a part of something bigger than themselves.

Next week we will announce the winner of Riverside Sings!

This is what we are about as the Parks Recreation and Community Services Department. We are grateful for the consideration in your organization to support and celebrate our youth's courage.

We want you to hand over the big check! Will you consider partnering with us for our Riverside Sings Competition? Please share with your community to broaden our reach and to further uplift Riverside.
