Facilities and Programs

Chattanooga Parks and Recreation Department provides a wide variety of educational and recreational activities throughout a network of well-maintained parks and public facilities.  The department is divided into two major divisions:  Program Services and Parks & Facilities.  Sports, arts and cultural activities operate through Program Services, while the Parks & Facilities division oversees park activities and maintenance of the city's recreational facilities.  The Chattanooga Parks & Recreation Department operates 15 community centers, two public golf courses,   fitness center,  skatepark,  tennis complex, 4 aquatic centers, Chew Chew Dog Park, and the Chattanooga Zoo.


To insure that our programs and facilities are more inclusive and accessible for residents of 'all' abilities, we have added a "Therapeutic Recreation" Division.  The Therapeutic Recreation Division provides a wide variety of activities that have been adapted to engage individuals with special needs and disabilities and serves as community partner with numerous rehabilitative and support services..
