WHAT WE DO

Our mission is to enrich the lives of Petaluma residents and visitors by providing parks, facilities and programs that encourage a healthy, active lifestyle for people of all ages.

Whether you're looking to enjoy a park, rent a facility, sign up for classes or sports leagues, send your child to an excellent preschool program, obtain services for active seniors and more -- this is the place to find what you're looking for.

We aim to help people enjoy Petaluma's beautiful outdoor spaces and engaged community.
