The Propane Education & Research Council, a program operated and funded by the propane industry, is now a member of the NRPA.

In its ongoing effort to align with groups dedicated to sustainable practices and environmental stewardship, the Propane Education & Research Council has been granted membership to the National Recreation and Park Association.

"We are excited to be joining such an impressive group as the National Recreation and Park Association, which values the environment and the way it is treated at the local level," said Jeremy Wishart, deputy director of business development at PERC. "We look forward to collaborating with NRPA members who share our vision to create cleaner, more sustainable, and cost-conscious parks departments."
