Mission Statement

The Monroe Parks and Recreation Department strives to provide quality recreation facilities and programs that promote healthy and active living opportunities for our residents. We offer a variety of activities for all ages and fitness levels. At our facilities, you can enjoy golf, swimming, athletic programs and leagues, fitness classes, senior programs, and much more. Day camps, after-school, and educational programs are offered year-round at many of our facilities. Spend some time in one of our parks picnicking and enjoying one of our many playgrounds with your children. Explore our downtown area as you enjoy a walk or run on the Bearskin Creek and Downtown Connector Greenways. Or, if you prefer indoor activities, our Aquatics and Fitness Center has something for everyone. Sign up for a membership and start your journey to a healthier life today.
