MOULTRIE — The Moultrie-Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce recently named the Moultrie-Colquitt County Parks and Recreational Authority as the August Business of the Month.

“This recognition is a testament to MCCPRA’s outstanding contributions to our community and its unwavering dedication to creating inclusive, vibrant and active opportunities for all members of our community,” the chamber said in a press release.

MCCPRA, a Municipal Authority, plays a crucial role in the community by providing a wide range of parks, recreational programs and services, the chamber said. MCCPRA positively impacts our community through recreation tourism including ball tournaments, swimming and dive meets throughout each year.

One of MCCPRA’s highlights is its beautifully maintained parks, which serve as a hub for outdoor activities and family gatherings, the chamber said. Main Street Park features a covered playground for kids, a pavilion with tables, a walking trail, and plenty of greenery for picnics. William Bryant Park, now under renovation, includes an outdoor basketball court and a covered playground and pavilion, offering perfect spots for both casual and organized activities.

The month of August brings exciting changes to William Bryant Park as MCCPRA prepares for the installation of the only mini-pitch in Colquitt County, expanding recreational services and opportunity for physical fitness in the Northwest community.

“From youth sports leagues to fitness classes, senior programs to community events, MCCPRA offers something for everyone,” the press release said. “Their commitment to inclusivity and community well-being has made them an integral part of Moultrie and Colquitt County.”

Located at 1020 Fourth St. S.W., MCCPRA’s facilities are easily accessible to all residents. For more information about their programs and services, call (229) 668-0028 or visit their website at www.mccpra.com.
