Calendar

Since the CDC has determined that large events like our annual Children’s Costume Party and Parade are high risk, this year Indianola Parks & Recreation will be holding virtual costume contests instead of our usual festivities on The Square. We’ll miss seeing everyone in person, but hope you’ll send us your photos so we can all enjoy them. You might even win a prize! Categories: Ages 3 & under: cutest or most creative Ages 4-6: scariest or most creative Ages 7-10: scariest or most creative Covid-19: scariest or most creative Best Group Theme Pick a contest category for your costume. Please just one entry per person (except you may also enter as part of a family/group theme) Submit your entry by emailing the participant's full name, age, contest category, phone number and photo to parkrec@indianolaiowa.gov by midnight on Saturday, 10/31. Winners will be announced and awarded their prize on Tuesday, November 3! Contest for pets found at https://www.facebook.com/events/6249

Your furry friend has put on a lot of miles with you over the past few months, and we want to give them a chance to earn their own medal in our first “Tails on Trails 10K”. That’s 6.2 miles that you and your pet will have to accomplish this fall. Do it in one day, or split it up if their little legs can’t make it all at once. There is no tracking sheet to fill in, we just ask for a picture of the participants be emailed to parkrec@indianolaiowa.gov once the 10K is completed. Please register your dog under your name and you will have an option to include the number of dogs participating by changing the "number of seats". Fee is per dog, with proceeds going to Kiya Koda Humane Society. Optional: Have your medal(s) mailed to your home for an additional $4 per medal.

Stretch, relax, breathe, move, laugh! Gentle workout improves balance, flexibility, strength, stamina, bone density, calmness & breathing. Free class for adults 50 or better.
