To receive a pass, teens must register in person at a City of Dallas recreation center during business hours and provide proof of Dallas residency. Pass details, recreation center locations, and a full list of participating venues are available at DallasParks.org.
Since its inception, the pass program has connected thousands of youth to experiences they might not otherwise have been able to access. In its first year, 7,066 passes issued generated more than 14,000 guest admissions.
The program supports the Mayor’s Summer of Safety initiatives to keep teens engaged, active, and safe during the summer while also highlighting July is Park and Recreation Month, a national celebration recognizing the importance of parks, public recreation, and community activities such as the pass program.
