Community Parks Connection, hosted by Stephanie LeGros, showcases local park facilities and events in Northern Dakota County. The show is produced four times a year in the winter, spring, summer, and fall. On the Summer 2026 episode, we stop by Jefferson Park in South St. Paul to hear about their Concert in the Park series, Drive-In Movie, and Summer camps. We head to Ivy Hills Park in Mendota Heights to check out the new playground there and hear about Heights Fest. In Inver Grove Heights, we stop by the Veterans Memorial Community Center to see the new Brightside Playzone and hear about the new amenities at Heritage Village Park. And, at the West St. Paul Pool, we'll meet the new Recreation Facilities Manager and check out their pool renovation project.
Watch on Channel 18 Thursdays at 6:30 PM, Fridays at 12:30 PM, Saturdays at 3:30 PM, and Sundays at 9:30 PM.
