Host Ali Vallarta is on a quest to visit all 511 parks in Salt Lake County, and she just hit her quarter mark! How are taxpayer dollars being put to use in these spaces? Producer Ivana Martinez asks Ali to debrief on trends she’s noticed, from the quirkiest playgrounds to a “water fountain crisis.” Plus, two cities get a special shoutout - do their parks merit a visit?
