This summer, Coca-Cola is kicking off the second annual America Is Your Park campaign toencouragefamilies to get active outdoors in parks across the country. Encourage your citizens to vote on www.LivePositively.com for a park in your area to win the title of "America's Favorite Park" and a $100,000 recreation grant!

America Is Your Park was developed by Coca-Cola in collaboration with NRPA. The Coca-Cola Live Positively initiative will award a $100,000 recreation grant to the park with the most votes, a $50,000 grant to the second-place park, and a $25,000 grant to the third-place park. These grants can help buy new equipment, restore activity areas, build trails, or simply make your park an overall better place for your citizens.

Get active and vote on www.LivePositively.com by September6, 2011, so one of your parks can be crowned America's favorite this summer! Last year's winner, Bear Head Lake State Park in Ely, Minn., beat out hundreds of others to be named "America's Favorite Park." This small park received more than 1.6 million votes.

So get your park supporters active outdoors spreading the word, conducted voting drives, and energizing online social networks!
