The Annual Arizona Parks and Recreation Association Conference & Expo is the premier education, networking, and exhibition event where we celebrate and educate Arizona's park and recreation professionals.

The Arizona Parks and Recreation Association was founded in 1950 as a member based professional organization. Our membership is comprised of diverse professionals who work for local municipalities, state and county parks, private recreation agencies, HOA's, golf courses and a wide variety of businesses that service the industry.

The Certified Park and Recreation Executive (CPRE) certification can be achieved by individuals employed in the recreation, park resources and leisure services profession who meet high standards of performance at a mastery (middle to upper management level).

Proof that Arizona Parks & Recreation Association (APRA) was meeting its objectives came when Scottsdale was selected as one of seven finalists, and Phoenix Parks and Recreation won the National Gold Medal Award in 1969.

APRA firmly believes parks and recreation professionals deserve access to quality education opportunities, diverse networking events, and experiences that inspire greatness. To that end, we invite you to register and join the 570 other Arizona professionals at the 74th APRA Annual Conference & Expo.
