Ways to Participate:
Join our Email Distribution List.
PRKC keeps a secure email list. Mailings are kept to a minimum and contain either summary information about an initiative or information about an event. Emails sent to our list are sent with the recipients email names blind carbon copied (bcced) so you will not inadvertently be added to someone's address book you do not know. You can choose whether or not to let PRKC partners send you email directly.
