Nature Parks
The Park District manages several parks as natural areas with limited development. These forests, meadows, prairies, wetlands and meandering streams provide an excellent outdoor classroom. Natural areas protect wildlife and offer us an opportunity to learn about natural history and our cultural heritage. Please help ensure that their priceless beauty can be enjoyed by future generations.

Neighborhood Parks
Providing at least one park in each neighborhood has been a primary goal of the Park District since its founding! Nearly all 32 neighborhood green spaces have been created with the cooperation of the City of Centerville, Washington Township, Montgomery County and developers. These nearby parks offer wooded trails, open areas, ponds, streams and play equipment that provide a beautiful setting for walks, picnics, school outings and family fun!
