Wake Co Parks & Recreation provides outdoor recreation and educational opportunities while promoting environmental and cultural stewardship through a managed system of parks and open spaces.

Our mission is to protect birds and the places they depend on. We believe that a world in which birds thrive is a world that benefits all living things.

To preserve unimpaired the natural, historic, and cultural resources and values of the NPS for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations.

Blue Scholars engages, educates and empowers students through hands-on (and virtual) marine science education to foster a connection to the ocean and to launch long-term environmental stewardship.

Empowering the Bluegrass to create a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment.
