Under the direction of the Mayor and City Council, and guided by recommendations from a strong citizen Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, the staff of the Ruston Parks and Recreation Department (RPAR) provides the citizens of our community with life-enriching recreational opportunities. Our staff prides itself on delivering quality customer service. Parks and Recreation is more than just fun and games! It also includes providing our citizens with wholesome recreational and athletic opportunities while developing and maintaining proper facilities in which to foster the concepts of equality, fair play, teamwork, and responsibility.

It is our desire to provide the best array of local recreational opportunities possible, delivered in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.
