Parks and Recreation

Our Mission:  Enhance community unity, health and open space preservation through people, parks and programs.

The City of Wentzville Parks and Recreation department provides many opportunities for people of all ages.  Programs offered  include fitness, sports leagues, cultural arts and enrichment classes.  In addition, the department offers special events throughout the year including the Hill of Thrills Soapbox Race, Easter Egg Hunt, Holiday Night Lights and many others.  We strive to offer something for everyone in the community.

The Parks and Recreation Department prides itself in keeping each park safe and beautiful for everyone to enjoy.  Parks in the community feature playgrounds, picnic shelters, paved trails, ball fields, a fishing lake, swimming pool, and many other outdoor amenities.  Progress Park houses the administrative offices, gymnasium, fitness center and Progress Park Center. The Center is a banquet hall facility which can be rented to host wedding receptions, birthday parties or other indoor festivities. 

The Parks and Recreation brochure is published three times each year.  All residents receive the brochure by mail.  To view an online PDF version click Fun Times or pick up a copy from the Parks and Recreation office.
