Grant County Parks and Recreation continues to plan for growth and opportunities to meet the recreational needs of the community. Currently, there are three county owned parks; Grant County Park, Crittenden, Jonesville Park and Mt. Zion Park. There are plans for several new park amenities throughout the county. It is our mission to provide safe, attractive parks and diverse recreational activities for all ages throughout the year. 

The Parks and Recreation Director collaborates with recreational boards, community initiatives, schools, city government and the community to offer recreational events for the entire county.

Youth in Grant County are offered a wide array of activities to increase physical activity, team unity, and knowledge of the game. The activities currently include; little league baseball, soccer, softball, summer camp and day events.

Grant County Parks and Recreation also provides shelter reservations for the picnic areas in our local parks for families or organizations. The reservation fee is $10 per reservation and goes towards park improvement projects.
