In 1948, The Heckart Family made their home here in Sedalia, established their family business, The Heckart Funeral Home, and became pillars of the community.

They believed their success as a family business was in large part because the community trusted in them and supported them. Because of the support of the community, it was their philosophy that they in return give back to those that had supported them for so many years. Sue carried on the family’s motto of “We Care, We Share, We Love.” Being a strong business woman, community leader, and philanthropist, Sue wanted nothing more than to bring her parents’ dream of a community center to the people of Sedalia.

(660) 826-4930 www.sedaliaparks.com @SedaliaParksandRec Heckart Community Center: 1800 W 3rd Convention Hall: 1500 W 3rd

To honor the legacy of her parents, Del & Stella ,Sue believed that the community deserved a place where everyone can come together to share experiences and create memories while improving the quality of life for all. It was with her generous multi-million dollar donation that allowed the Sedalia Parks & Recreation Department the ability to present a 1/8 cent sales tax to help build a Community Center. The community overwhelmingly responded with an 80% YES, YES vote.

Sue knows and values the importance of Parks and Recreation and trusts Sedalia Parks & Recreation to honor her parent’s legacy with this outstanding facility that will forever impact the Community of Sedalia. Thank you Sue Heckart for your generous gift in honor of your parents Del and Stella Heckart!

Spring will be here before we know it! The days will continue to get longer, the temperatures will continue to rise, and Mother Nature is giving us all a chance to get outside and explore. The parks are waking up from their long winter hibernation and are coming alive with more activity. The sound of kids laughing is once again on the playgrounds, the crack of the bat on the ball fields, and an increased number of community members out walking, running, and biking.

2024 is going to be a great and exciting year for Sedalia Parks & Recreation!

Throughout this activity guide you will be sure to find something for everyone. We are very excited about all the programs, activities, and adventures ahead for us this spring and summer. Liberty Land Train will be up and running once again, we are very eager to be receiving our new train engine any day now. Please be sure to like us on Facebook to learn all the details on Liberty Land Train.

Liberty Park will be begin to see construction on a new playground. The playground will be located between the large shelter and bathrooms. Once the new playground is complete we will remove the old playground, but will be keeping the elephant of course!

Groundbreaking of the New Aquatic Facility at the Old Sutherlands property right off of east 50 Hwy will begin this summer too! We look forward to keeping the public updated during construction.

Liberty Park Stadium improvements will begin in August with completion of project in early winter. This project will consist of complete turf playing surface, fence improvements, lined and paved parking lot, and seating improvements.

This project is funded by a match grant and will help us to make improvements that are needed. In 2023, we hosted 212 games at Liberty Stadium! These improvements will give us the opportunity to offer more games at this historic stadium all year long for many to enjoy.

With the closure of Centennial Pool comes change, I advise you to please check out the hours of operation at Liberty Pool on page 6 where you will find Adult Swim and Splash and Play information. We are working hard to provide a summer of fun, especially for those programs and activities that were once only held at Centennial Pool.

As always our staff is open to any feedback to help serve our community to the best of our ability. You are the stewards and gatekeepers for Sedalia Parks and Recreation. The successes we see are a direct result of your support, involvement, and love for a quality of life that holds access to parks as key factor.

Looking forward to seeing you out in the parks or at one of our great facilities.

reviews

Reviews from our members “It’s the best field trip ever.” –Emma “I am well taken care of for my needs. Everyone is very welcoming and friendly. I feel like I hit a homerun with the HCC.”- Julia “I could barely walk a mile on January 2, 2023. Since my wife enjoys walking, I decided to join her at the HCC. “I started with 250 steps, up and down the HCC stairs and walking one mile on the indoor track. I worked up to 800 steps and two miles and now I can walk three miles and 1600 each time I visit. The HCC is amazing. I see what the facility provides for the kids. We both enjoy coming here.”Alan “When I started playing pickle ball I borrowed the center’s equipment but soon bought my own racquet. I really enjoy playing the game, meeting new friends and improving my health. “My breathing and eye and hand coordination has improved.” - Art “The three pillars of everything we do at Lasting Impressions is Community, Choice and Growth. Having the HCC available as a resource to our clients has helped serve our mission in all three areas. Most of our individuals choose to have a membership and we help them find funding to become a member. Having the HCC available to them helps our folks meet many of their objectives whether it is to exercise, have community involvement, or learn new skills.

It seems like the HCC is a "one size fits all" for all of our clients despite their interests or abilities. Some enjoy working out and shooting hoops on the courts, while others take a dip in the pool or walk around the track. Even some of our more introverted clients have expressed an interest in participating in E-sports to branch out and make new friends. I am so thankful that our individuals have a place that they enjoy but most importantly, a place that they belong.” – Shannon Wassam, Lasting Impressions Administrator
