The Park District oversees 314.4 acres of parks and playground properties which include a nature center and a portion of the Green Bay Bike Trail, along with a spectacular lakefront, that combine to create the ambiance that is one of the primary reasons people want to live in, and continue to move to, our community.

It is empowered to levy taxes, acquire land, develop parks, build and operate recreation facilities and establish programs.
