We are celebrating a monumental moment for the Parks & Recreation Department, and we are celebrating all day Saturday June 10th 2023!

Groundbreaking Ceremony starting at 10:30 am
This has been quite the journey starting in early 2021. After gather public input and conceptualizing plans, the Board of Alderman approved the plan at the Tuesday October 5th 2021 meeting. Then we met with architects and engineers to get a more detailed plan created. All the construction plans are set in stone and we are happy to start building! Details about the journey to get to this moment can be found on the Recreation Center Planning Page.
The morning of Saturday we will host the Groundbreaking Ceremony with speeches from Mayor Dawn Morgan, Director Ernie Pages and additional special guests. Then we’ll don our hardhats and grab shovels to move some dirt!
