MI Parks and Recreation Partners with Family Activity Website Funnerator

Mercer Island's busy parents will find a "quick and convenient experience" using the web-based startup's tools to find and take part in Parks & Rec programs, say city officials.

The Mercer Island Parks and Recreation Department and Seattle based internet start-up Funnerator announced a new partnership to help residents register for programs, according to a press release.

Funnerator offers a web-based, family activity planning tool that will help Island families plan and coordinate all the various classes, events, and activities offered by the Department.

Funnerator is a website that allows parents to plan youth activities by organizing all the registration information in one place on the web then streamlining enrollment. The partnership, according to the city, will bring together the rich assortment of hundreds of annual activities and programs offered by the Department with Funnerator's comprehensive set of tools for discovery and registration.Β
