LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR With recent days in the 60s and 70s, and daffodils starting to pop up from the ground, it is easy to think about warm spring days and getting outside. I think we still have a few more winter-like days ahead of us, but it won’t be too long before we can shed those big jackets. And that is exciting!

One new way to be active outside this spring will be a new playground at Katy Park. The playground is still under construction but will be completed over the next couple of weeks thanks to the support of the Parks Department and staff.

Be sure to check out our website and social media about the opening of the playground in April to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Katy Park.

Catch a ballgame at the historic Liberty Stadium that was recently renovated this winter through the Local Tourism Asset Development Match Grant. Or go down memory lane, and do something you’ve never done before by hoping on Liberty Land Train that will be back up and running this summer…a favorite for all!

April 1 is the start of the shelter rental season. Many of the parks have shelters of many sizes for families and groups to rent for a great day in the park. There are 2 shelters out at Clover Dell Park, one by the lake and another by the playground, along with multiple shelters at every park Park for use. Several of the other parks have a gazebo which is great for meeting for lunch, or an evening meal with your family or friends. And they are near other great park amenities, like playgrounds, ballfields and trails. Book your next event in a shelter by calling our office 660-826-4930.

If you are looking to make an impact this summer, consider working for Parks and Recreation! We are currently looking for Seasonal Maintenance, Landscaping staff and Lifeguards. Our staff interacts with youth and their families daily while they are out of school this summer, making a positive impact on their lives. Often a first job for many in our community, working at Parks and Recreation gives you a start on your work or school career, giving you a hands-on experience serving people. You can apply on-line or in-person.

The Sedalia Parks & Recreation Department oversees over 300 acres of park land, Convention Hall, and the Heckart Community Center, as well as maintaining seven parks: Liberty, Centennial, Clover Dell, Hubbard, Housel, Katy, and Vermont Park. A wide array of sports, recreation activities, lessons, and special events are available for all area citizens.

There are other great projects in the works that you will hear about in more detail in the coming months like the bowling alley and outdoor aquatic facility. Both of these projects are still in the design phase but ground breaking is right around the corner. And little things, like new Art in the Park and putting cameras in our parks for better security and safety of our patrons, we continue to make effort to improve our parks.

Programs like the Aqua Camp, 4th of July activities are well into the planning stages in preparation for you all to join us this summer.

I hope that you get a chance to enjoy this warmer weather, and are looking forward to Spring. I’ll see you outside!

Register online at www.sedaliaparks.com or call (660) 826-4930.

To honor the legacy of her parents, Del and 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!

HECKART COMMUNITY CENTER

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.

HECKART COMMUNITY CENTER

The Heckart Community Center accepts SilverSneakers, OnePass, and RenewActive memberships! Through these programs, the Heckart Community Center offers older adults a way to increase their levels of physical activity while motivating them to remain active.
