Our Mission

Our mission is to serve the Salina community by delivering exceptional natural areas, programs, and facilities. We are dedicated to fostering active play, promoting health, recreation, and a deeper connection with nature. Through this commitment, we aim to inspire engagement and enrich lives.

You and your family are invited to visit our 26 City parks featuring over 1000 acres of parkland and a wide range of amenities. Spend an afternoon at the Municipal Golf Course, or participate in the numerous recreation programs offered for all ages and interests.

The Salina Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for managing and maintaining our nine divisions, the City park system, recreational programs, and other public facilities. The Recreation Division is responsible for providing a year-round diversified recreation program for all citizens of Salina, including participation programs, community services, and special events.

A wide variety of programming is provided for all ages and interests, with specific program areas offered for 50 Plus and Therapeutic Recreation. Other program areas include aquatics, athletics, instructional, natural resources, performing and visual arts, and summer day camps.

The Parks, Forestry, and Downtown Divisions are responsible for maintaining park grounds and landscaping, as well as maintenance responsibilities in downtown Salina and on other public grounds, which include parkways and landscaped median strips. Over 60,000 flowers are planted annually in the parks system.

The Salina Parks & Recreation Department has several satellite office locations. The administrative offices are located in the City-County Building.
