Agua Caliente Park

The below calendar is a list of events at Agua Caliente Park.

The combined Conservation Lands & Resources Dept and Parks and Recreation Dept registration site had become so full that it could be difficult to navigate to find what you are looking for.

Beginning with September programming, registration will be made by visiting www.DiscoverNature.pima.gov. Your account has been migrated to the brand new platform. Other than the new web address and simplified choices, the registration procedure remains the same.

Registration for August programs now listed on www.explore.pima.gov will also be available for registration on www.DiscoverNature.pima.gov
