Valley City’s parks are defined by their sweeping canopies, shaded paths, and the rich sense of place created by generations of trees. As stewards of this landscape, Valley City Parks and Recreation is committed to protecting the health, beauty, and long-term sustainability of our urban forest.

Valley City is full of recreation opportunities for youth—from VCPR programs to the many local clubs offering sports and activities. Kids here have countless ways to stay active, learn new skills, and find what they love.

Our parks are places where families gather, friends meet, and memories are made. Keeping them clean helps preserve that experience for everyone — including the wildlife that calls our parks home.

Valley City Parks and Recreation wrapped up a busy month of October events with a spooktacular evening in Chautauqua Park for our annual Trunk or Treat!

While Parktober Festival is all about free fall fun and community connection, it also has a meaningful impact.

As we gear up for another exciting July celebration, we want to extend a huge thank you to Thrivent, our valued sponsor who continues to bring their A-game to our community events year after year.

On Tuesday, December 17th, from 4:30 to 6:00 PM, Santa will be spreading holiday cheer at the Gaukler Family Wellness Center.
