Mission Statement

The Port Huron City Recreation Department shall concentrate their efforts on the determination and evaluation of the recreational needs of our community. To accomplish this, we will on an ongoing basis, work to establish new goals and priorities. We will consult with various agencies, citizens, previous activity participants, etc. to foster wholesome, quality recreational activities for families and youth, such as sports, crafts, playgrounds, social activities, swimming pools, beaches, ice rinks, and ball fields. We will participate with outside resources and develop relationships with our peer groups for the receipt and sharing of recreational programming and operational ideas and information.

We will serve as a resource for the purpose of disseminating up to date recreation and leisure activities for our community. We will utilize community facilities such as schools and public buildings in the promotion thereof. Administrative support is provided by Department Staff with technical assistance throughout other City Departments, as well as outside experts in the field of recreation. The outside information is to be utilized for the benefit of existing and future programs.
