Specialties
Alameda Recreation and Parks works with all sectors of the community to provide services and give opportunities for citizen input regarding leisure services and facilities. Our goal is to improve the quality of community life by developing values, life skills and experiences that lead to socially responsible and productive lives.
History
Established in 1895.
The Alameda Recreation and Park Department (ARPD) began as the Alameda Parks and Playgrounds Commission, which was established by ordinance on October 5, 1908, becoming one of the first municipal recreation agencies in the state of California. In 1911, the Commission was abolished and its duties transferred to a committee composed of three members of the City Council.
Following the adoption of a new City Charter in 1917, the department came under the authority of the City Manager. Since 1952, a five-member Recreation Commission has advised the City Council and the Recreation and Park Department on matters relating to the acquisition, development and operation of facilities, community recreation programs and activities.
