Walk the Trail Day is an event coordinated between the City of Purcell Parks & Recreation Department and the Heart of Oklahoma Chamber of Commerce and joined by many different businesses and organizations in the Purcell community to celebrate the American Hiking Society's National Trails Day event. In 2021, the city and chamber teamed up to host an event that would highlight our lake and new trail system, get families outside and exercising, while also providing a completely free experience. The event was so successful, it only makes sense to make it an annual event!
We had planned to host the grand opening of the Rotary Playground on the same day as our Walk the Trail Day celebration. But due to much-needed rainfall, we will be pushing back our grand opening to a later date.

We are currently looking for activity booths and sponsors for the event! Vendor booths need to host a simple game that is fast paced carnival style games and may focus physical activity. Ring toss, hopscotch, hoopla hoops, etc. Sponsors are needed to help with the cost of hosting the event, prizes, and supplies.
