Great info from Jamestown Parks and Recreation on our to***co free parks here in the community!

👀 See Something. Say Something.

Did you know JPRD parks and recreational facilities are to***co-free? 🚭

The use of to***co products is prohibited in JPRD-owned parks and recreational facilities, including both indoor and outdoor spaces and locations where JPRD-sponsored activities take place.

Whether you’re watching a game, visiting the playground, walking the trails or enjoying an afternoon at the park, help us keep these spaces welcoming for everyone.

💚 Help us take care of YOUR parks.

💜 Today is International Overdose Awareness Day 💜
We can’t always know when someone may need help. But we can be prepared to provide it.
Naloxone (Narcan) can help reverse the effects of an opioid overdose and may be helpful in an emergency involving certain kratom products, including 7-OH. Knowing the signs of an overdose and how to respond can make a difference when every second matters.
Together, we can care for ourselves, care for each other and help protect North Dakota.
👉 Between July 2025 and June 2026, we distributed 33,414 naloxone kits. Request a free naloxone kit and learn how to recognize and respond to an opioid overdose at hhs.nd.gov/opioids.
