mParks Members represent the entire state of Michigan. While we value the benefits of connecting with colleagues across the state, we know it's important to build relationships with park and recreation professionals local to you. Regional Groups are a great way to connect with professionals working in departments near you. Regional Groups operate separately from mParks and have their own dues budgets.
