The City of Wenatchee Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department has received funding to complete a variety of projects that were requested by the community.  Here are just a few of the larger projects that we are working on in 2024.

A re-opening ceremony is planned for May 22, 2024 at 5pm.
