Department Overview

The Kerman Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Department is a rural leader in providing quality facilities, programs, and services to local residents. Excellent customer service is provided through well maintained parks and facilities, inviting public places, and trained and motivated staff. The programs and services offered by this department reflect the needs and wants of our residents and are considered to be of excellent value and quality.

The department invites the community to share their knowledge, skill, and abilities by contributing their ideas and time and by helping the department deliver programs and services effectively. The department in part with the City contributes to the personal, social, economic, and environmental well-being of the community as a whole.
