Mission: To enrich the quality of life of our community by providing diverse recreational activities, parks, and facilities that encourage health, fitness, relaxation, and learning.

Columbus Parks and Recreation continually maintains and improves Columbus’ 23 city parks, 1,000 acres of park land, 23 miles of People Trail, and 10 community facilities.
