ST. ALBANS, WV – In celebration of the 12th Annual National Kids to Parks Day, Mayor Scott James and the St. Albans Parks & Recreation Department have proclaimed May 21 Kids to Parks Day in St. Albans.
“We are excited to celebrate Kids to Parks Day here in St. Albans. This is a great opportunity for our community to come together and explore all that our parks have to offer. I encourage everyone to get out and enjoy the day!” Mayor James said.
