Information and Contact Numbers
From: The Director's Court
I am frequently inspired by the caring members of our community who give their time and talents to make a difference in the lives of our children and teens. We're all over committed and struggling financially yet we have over 200 coaches and managers who step up year after year to take on the responsibilities of leading a team of young people in a particular sport or endeavor. These men and women are neighbors, parents, business owners and, for many of us, friends. Most importantly they give our children something which is so critically important in their development as people and adults- a good role model and a positive self image.
Some of our volunteers have years of experience coaching and playing their chosen sport and share a passion for the game that is unequaled while others step up when no one else will, don the cap, pick up the playbook and begin learning on the fly- driven by the need to serve their children, and subsequently ours.
We have a small but dedicated staff at Recreation and Parks who take your registrations, plan your programs, supervise your children, and maintain your parks. Many unsung heroes reside in our ranks without whom these programs and facilities would cease to exist. I am proud to be part of this tremendous team and encourage you to join us.
Check back at this site or join our Facebook page for instant updates on this and all of our other programs and services.
Be active and be well,

Our Services
On a year-round basis Redding Recreation provides opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to pursue hobbies, develop talents, form new friendships, and enjoy various sports.
During our infamous hot summers we offer swimming classes and a variety of aquatics programs. We are especially excited about the Redding Aquatic Center which features an olympic sized pool, a second pool and water slides.
Two large city parks and numerous smaller parks provide ample facilities for picnics and family fun. In addition to our current programs, Redding Recreation is continually seeking new ways to meet the ever-changing needs of our community.
