Want to ride a horse, reach for the stars, come face to face with a tiger, score the winning goal or become an adventurer? BREC is where you go to experience the beauty of nature, exercise your body and your mind, slow down, relax and make memories. Since 2004, we have worked with our community to imagine what our parks can be and thanks to that support and Input, we are proud to say, you imagined, and we delivered Gold. BREC, your Gold Medal system has 175 parks just waiting for you to enjoy.
We Won Gold!
As a community, we embarked on a multi-year effort to reimagine our parks and facilities. And that effort helped us become #1 in the nation and bring home the gold
