park news LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
With so many exciting events, programs, and happenings in Chesterfield Parks, Recreation & Arts this year, there is much to share with the community. We will transform some areas of our department and launch brand new programs. Most importantly, in 2019 we will complete our Parks, Recreation & Arts Master Plan which will help guide us over the next ten plus years. Mark your calendars and come see what the residents have told us they want. The presentation will be at City Hall on May 15 at 6:00 p.m. This year, we will take over pool operations at Chesterfield Family Aquatic Center, which means that we will no longer contract our lifeguards and management through an outside company. We have taken over every aspect of the pool from hiring staff to managing operations, as well as enhancing programs offered at the pool. We believe this will allow us to make the CFAC an even better facility for the community. We have a brand new soccer league for youth aged 3-12 looking to get involved in a sport. A Holiday Run/Walk series has been added for our citizens that want to participate in all three of our yearly runs, including the NEW Stars and Stripes 4th of July Run/Walk. Summer Camp is getting an upgrade with some exciting, new field trips and activities as well as moving our “home base” to Central Park and that’s just to name a few of the newer items coming up this year. Of course, our community favorites will be back. Start Smart Baseball for the smaller sluggers and Adult Softball for the taller ones. Sounds of Summer free concert series at the Chesterfield Amphitheater continues in its 9th season, along with a list of awesome ticketed concerts set to take the stage this summer which offer a variety of genres like country, bluegrass, jazz, rock, orchestra and much more. Our Senior Sizzlers provides programs for citizens at varying activity levels, from our Senior Cycling and walking groups, to Senior Seminars educating older adults on numerous interesting topics. Sign up for our Older Adult email blast to stay up to date on all of the great programs offered. Another way to stay informed on the latest news is on our Chesterfield Parks app. You will receive convenient up-to-date information on our events, programs and weather-related notifications. With three state-of-the-art facilities, over 512 acres of parkland and 23 miles of running, walking and biking trail routes, Chesterfield has truly become a prime location for entertainment, recreation, art and leisure. As always, our maintenance staff works hard to keep our facilities and parks beautiful and safe, for all our events and programs, as well as community enjoyment.

This peaceful 188-acre passive park is conveniently located near the heart of Chesterfield Valley, but is tucked quietly away from the bustling retail commerce just south of the Missouri River. To access the heart of the park, visitors walk less than 1/4 mile on a crushed limestone trail before the trail opens up to a beautiful lake surrounded by a wall of mature trees on every side. The trail continues around the entire 1.6 mile circumference of the lake and branches off to one boardwalk and a mulched trail. The park offers a convenient boating dock attached to a park shelter for fishing enthusiasts. The Parks, Recreation & Arts Department has provided the copious amount of fish that occupy the lake. River’s Edge Park parking is in the shared parking lot on the western edge of the Taubman Prestige Outlets. The park is open year-round from sunrise to sunset. TRAIL The trail and surrounding wooded area has welcomed naturelovers and environmentalists as well. Bird watching is a popular activity at the park. Chesterfield is rich in different habitats and ecosystems and this makes for some prime bird watching experiences. The park and its surrounding areas offer habitats for many species of woodland songbirds and woodpeckers.

parks, facilities & trails EBERWEIN PARK 1627 Old Baxter Road The City of Chesterfield purchased this 18-acre site from the Eberwein family several years ago for the purposes of developing a community park. This park is named after the Eberwein family who first settled in Chesterfield over 100 years ago. The Eberwein family used this land as a farm and their residence up until the time of purchase by the city. To preserve the history, character, and charm of the site, the Eberwein Park was designed as a passive community park with a farm-like theme. To accomplish this, the existing large red barn, which was originally constructed in the early 1900s, has been preserved.
PARK AMENITIES Trail • Dog Park • Public Art Community Garden • Playground • Picnic Benches • Barn • Native Prairie Garden • Restrooms
ART IN THE PARK “The Coyote” is a life-size bronze sculpture created by Harry Weber depicting a coyote standing in heightened awareness of his surroundings.
NATIVE PRAIRIE GARDEN Eberwein Park has an interactive native prairie that provides quality habitat and food sources for local wildlife, especially our pollinators. The Chesterfield Parks, Recreation & Arts Department received a Community Stewardship Grant through the Missouri Department of Conservation to create the prairie that will also incorporate walking paths throughout, and provide opportunities for learning about the plants, animals, and insects that share our parks.
“Dog Days” is a fiberglass chair beautifully painted in acrylic to reflect the fun and carefree nature of dogs in the spirit of play within the Dog Park. The artist, Michelle Streiff, used her own beloved Jack Russell Terriers as her inspiration for the piece. For details about our public art, visit chesterfield.mo.us/art-in-the-park.html.

Please visit City Hall during normal business hours for an application.
