Missoula Parks & Recreation’s Guiding Mission is
to enhance the quality of life in our community by:
-
Promoting Health and Wellness
-
Stimulating (supporting and encouraging
successful) Community & Economic
Development
-
Protecting the Environment
-
Educating and Enriching the
Citizens of Our Community
Our
Vision Statement:
Missoula Parks and
Recreation is essential to the quality and way of life
for individuals, families, community and the environment.
The benefits of Parks and Recreation are
endless!™
Beyond Fun and Games
Often people are unaware of how vital recreation and leisure are to the quality of
their lives. While fun, happiness and play are vital to growth and development, the
expanded role of public parks and recreation is more critical than ever. Whether we know
it or not, programs, services, events and opportunities offered by local, state and
national park and recreation agencies positively impact many areas of our lives and
society as a whole.
Everyone Benefits
Everyone in the world has
somehow benefited by public park and recreation programs at some time in their
lives - directly or indirectly. The time has come to make the connection between
past experiences and today's success, yesterday's activities and tomorrow's
physical and mental wellness and today's taxpayer support and safe communities
for our children and grandchildren. So, whether an avid participant or
occasional observer, enjoy the benefits. It's everyone's right!
