No Cost/Low Cost Recreational Opportunities

UCP of Northern Nevada does not have an organized recreation program; however, we believe that recreation is an important aspect in one’s life. We have compiled a list of no cost or low cost recreational opportunities available in the local community for you to enjoy during your leisure. As with any sport, you should be careful and use caution whenever necessary. If you choose to participate in any of these activities, you do so at your own risk.
