2008 Great Year for Roswell Recreation and Parks

Roswell has a wonderful Recreation and Parks department, and if you need proof, it’s in the numbers.  The department took in $4 million in fees, donations and grants in the fiscal year 2007 - 2008.  In another achievement for the department and city, Joe Glover, the director of the Recreation and Parks department, was named the Distinguished Professional of the Year by the Georgia Recreation and Parks Department. 

According to their Mission Statement, the Roswell Recreation and Parks Department: …continues to strive to meet the leisure needs of the Citizens of Roswell by providing quality comprehensive recreational opportunities and quality comprehensive Parks and Facilities.  We think they are doing a great job meeting this goal and are one of the top reasons Roswell is such a great place to live and work!

If you have lived in Roswell for any time, you probably know that the parks are one of the great amenities of our wonderful city.  You may have even attended a city sponsored event or two.  But did you know that the city has tons of great classes and programs for all ages, from infants to seniors?  They offer a wide variety of subjects like athletics, art, cooking, technology and more.  There are even Parents’ Nights Out where you can leave your children to have fun, crafts and pizza while you have a night out!  To see their 80+ page online brochure, Click Here.
