INDIANAPOLIS — Indy Parks in collaboration with the Information Services Agency is bringing high-speed public WIFI to park facilities across the city. WIFI installations have been completed at 19 Indy Parks facilities to date with 10 more facilities scheduled for completion by the end of summer. The initiative is funded with $500,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).
Offering public WIFI allows these facilities to expand program offerings, provide students with spaces that better support learning, and facilitate more community meetings and events. The project is also improving staff WIFI connectivity allowing them to better serve residents. 98% of Indy Parks facilities will have public WIFI after the completion of this project.
WIFI installations have been completed at the many locations, including Broad Ripple Family Center, Stanley Strader Family Center, Brookside Family Center, Ellenberger Family Center, Perry Pool/Ice Rink, World Sports Park, Garfield Family Center, Washington Park Family Center, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Park, Christian Park
The following locations are scheduled to have WIFI installed by the end of the summer: Bel Aire Park, Eagle Creek Park Crest, Eagle Creek Park Hideaway, Glenn’s Valley Park, Windsor Village Park, Frederick Douglass Park, and Thatcher Park.
