Airway Heights Parks & Rec
Improving the quality of life for Airway Heights residents
Airway Heights Parks & Recreation is dedicated to providing our residents and community members with the best service, programs, and facilities possible! We are honored to serve this great community, and promise to work hard everyday to improve the quality of life of our residents and community members through safe programs, inviting parks, and facilities. We truly appreciate your trust and support.
CARES works to promote the Airway Heights Parks & Recreation Department’s mission of creating community and quality of life for all residents by supporting the development of quality recreational facilities, and programs for youth and adults in the greater Airway Heights area. Through enhanced community outreach, partnerships, and contributions, CARES collaborates and connects those that share in the mission of improving our community through people, parks, and programs.
Summer has now come and gone in the blink of an eye, and we look ahead to another fall and winter season filled with more fun programs, activities, and opportunities for community engagement.
As we wrap up 2024, we want to reinforce the importance of a healthy community and the role that health and fitness play in our mission to enhance community and quality of life. The Recreation Center plays a crucial role in promoting fitness and community health through its infrastructure and programs. We are committed to inspiring positive lifestyle choices and enhancing overall health quality. In line with the “Exercise is Medicine” initiative, launched by the American College of Sports Medicine in 2007, we encourage incorporating physical activity into daily routines. This approach not only promotes optimal health but also helps prevent and manage various medical conditions. Studies have shown that physically active individuals tend to incur significantly lower healthcare costs compared to their sedentary counterparts.
