Do you NOT have a New Yeark Resolution? 

Well here are a couple of ideas that the Recreation Department has to offer:

Run About Town-FREE Join a group of runners every Sunday at 8:00am at Suzzette's Crêpe Café at 1226 Solano Aveune. We will have different levels for runners; 2-miles, 4-miles, and 6-miles. Each weekend we will go a little bit furthur!

Adopt-a-Park-The program seeks to provide Albanians with a sense of civic responsibility, community, and pride of accomplishing something positive in their neighborhood.  The program is designed to be a fun and informal approach that involves the community with minor maintenance and beautification projects as well as monitor parks for potential hazards and vandalism! Adopt-A-Park encourages Albany residents and/or Albany based organizations to collaborate and take “ownership” of their local park. These are YOUR parks. How will you contribute to keeping them beautiful?

•Jewel's Terrace Park 

•Opal Staniek Tot Lot 

•Ohlone Greenway
