ABOUT US

Mission Statement

To consistently meet the social, physical and cultural needs of the community by providing the amenities, innovative programs and exemplary use of natural resources that enhance Corpus Christi as a place to live and visit. This will be achieved through common goals and shared resources, both within the City organization and throughout the community.

 

The City of Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department offers a wide range of recreational activities for all age groups. Activities include swimming, tennis, golf, skateboarding, martial arts, sports, arts & crafts, and seminars on various topics.

 

For a sampling of the cultural experience and entertainment, there are special events, dances, art exhibits, festivals, cooking demonstrations, summer concerts in the parks, and so much more.

 

After school and summer camp programs provide organized, supervised recreation environments for youth—a welcomed alternative to working parents. Community centers are open campuses that offer a variety of classes and events.

 

It’s easy to plan an outing or picnic with your family and friends with over 190 parks throughout the city.

 

And it’s not summer without a day at the beach. The climate is ideal for activities year-round like beachcombing, sunbathing, or simply relaxing.

 

All department facilities are also available for rentals. Accommodations are fitting for business meetings, sports, parties, family reunions, weddings, and other special events.

 

For more information about these and programs and services provided by the City of Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department, call 361-826-3460. We invite you to… Live. Learn. Play!
