Apex Park and Recreation District recently launched the Apex Activated podcast. We discuss community issues, recreation, and being part of a larger picture.

Apex PRD is the heart and soul of our community. We are an official gathering place for healthy activities with friends. Our guests from around the country will discuss how to activate their community. We may throw in some pop culture and inspire you to get socially, emotionally, and physically involved.

Mini Mic, Major Vibes: NRPA Edition

This week on Apex Activated, we are bringing you a special episode straight from the heart of Florida, recorded live at the 2025 National Recreation and Parks Association (NRPA) Conference. Armed with our man-on-the-street mini mic and big questions, we hit the floor to chat with fun park and rec professionals, community changemakers, and a few familiar voices you will definitely recognize from past episodes.

We caught up with Kristine Stratton, president and CEO of NRPA, who was so excited to see everyone coming together for a week of learning and connecting.

From spontaneous interviews to reflections on the week, this episode captures the energy, heart and humor of people shaping the future of our communities through parks and recreation.

Tune in to hear from Kristine Stratton, voices from the field and some major inspiration.

Streaming Friday, October 17 on Apple, iHeart, Podbean, Spotify or anywhere you get your fave podcast. Don’t forget to follow, like, and comment to keep the conversations going.
