Chairperson Message

As Chair of the Prescott Valley Parks and Recreation Commission, it is my honor and privilege to advocate for our town’s park system. With leaps of imagination and dreaming, we are seeing the excitement of possibilities becoming realities. Fiscal Year 2018/2019 has been rewarding for the department. We are striving to make Prescott Valley the best possible community for our residents. Why? Because everyone deserves a great park and the endless benefits they provide!

As a daily user of Prescott Valley’s parks and recreation system, I see firsthand the positive impact that these services have on our community. Our parks and trails provide time for residents to reconnect with nature and each other. Our arts, cultural and recreational activities deliver a diverse array of all-ages programming to keep community members active and engaged. I invite you to explore our town’s parks and recreation system and discover everything it has to offer. Whether it’s joining a fitness class, fishing, or visiting an art exhibit, the opportunities for connection are endless.

Parks are vital to the health and enrichment of our community, from teaching children to be stewards of their natural environments, to keeping residents of all ages healthy, happy, and connected. My thanks goes out to the FRIENDS of Parks and Recreation and the many community and business partners who make our town’s parks and events possible. The effort of our volunteers and contributors make to develop, improve, and preserve Prescott Valley’s park system will continue to make Prescott Valley one of the best town’s to live, work, and play. Thank you for trusting us as we continue to use your resources to help others in years ahead!

For those that may not have noticed Prescott Valley continues to improve its parks with new equipment and recreation activities. Mountain Valley Park reached new heights with new, state-of-the-art climbing structures and the newest park, Santa Fe Station, will include our first all-inclusive ADA playground along with the popular sport of pickle ball to be enjoyed by both young and old.

Prescott Valley has been a Tree City USA community for 15 years. We have won many awards and grants to expand our parks tree canopy which is remarkable and is one of only 30 Tree Cities in the State of Arizona.

The most exciting news is that of our future and the undertaking of the master plan for our Parks & Recreation Department. Prescott Valley’s growth is one of the fastest in Arizona and this plan will help meet all of the needs of our diversified citizens.

Respectfully,

Buzz GummerChair, Parks and Recreation Commission

Adaptive RecreationAdaptive Recreation Division provides opportunities and access in recreation programs for individuals who have disabilities. Adaptive and inclusionary service programs are designed for persons with disabilities.

individuals with disabilities or behavioral disorders. Surveyed the community to cultivate a qualified pool of professionals, community service

leaders, and parents to help guide the Parks and Recreation Commission in the selection of the community’s first inclusive playground.

Commissioner Smith brought her past knowledge of the Commission with her, her passion for the arts was sorely missed and we are very pleased to have her back on the Commission.
