Happy New Year!


Ringing in a New Year brings with it exciting opportunities to start fresh on personal health and well-being.  Here at the Parks and Recreation Department, we make it our job all year long to provide you and your family with diverse programs and activities to choose from especially during these cold winter months.  If starting out the New Year means making exercise a top-priority, our Fitness Center is equipped with state of the art exercise equipment as well as personal trainers who will create a workout designed just for you!

Regardless of what you are looking for, our dedicated staff is always here to answer any questions you may have or simply offer suggestions to help you make the right decisions for yourself or for your family 

Give us a call today, we look forward to seeing you in the park!

We will be opening a dedicated Program Registration and Facility Reservation Desk in February.  The new desk will be open daily Monday through Friday.  It will be located on the east side of the building and will be accessible through the newly re-opened doors facing Bentz Street.  The existing entry door facing Baker Park will remain open for Talley Fitness Center members and facility usage.  Renovation is underway! We are excited to offer the community a streamlined opportunity to enjoy what we have to offer.
