Mission Statement:

To promote quality recreation opportunities for all citizens of the greater Waynesville area by providing indoor and outdoor facilities and activities and to be a resource for those who seek to improve their quality of life through recreation.

 

History of the Department:

What began in 1956 as the Waynesville Recreation Development Commission, became a line department under the Town of Waynesville in 1975.  In 1984, an old town Armory was remodeled and the Town had it's first Recreation Center. On December 18, 2000, the new Waynesville Recreation Center was officially opened.  Today, the Waynesville Parks and Recreation Department manages five parks, six tennis courts, over 55 acres of land and two Recreation Centers.
