MISSION STATEMENT
To provide recreational opportunities that enrich the quality of life for all.
The Board of Park Commissioners and staff are very pleased to provide the programs and facilities listed in this brochure.
We try to offer a well-rounded selection of activities and amenities to choose from, and we want you to have an outstanding
experience. Please let us know of any suggestions or concerns regarding our programs and facilities. We hope you take
the time to enjoy the many parks, facilities, and programs we offer!
DIRECTOR’S UPDATE:
I am very excited to have this opportunity to encourage the citizens of our community to look through this brochure and to
take advantage of the many various programs and facilities that the Bettendorf Parks and Recreation Department has to
offer. The Park Board Commissioners, Mayor and City Council, and the many staff that help provide these opportunities are
all very proud of the contributions made to the quality of life for Bettendorf residents.
The largest development project that we will be undertaking in 2015 will be the construction of the first phase of Forest Grove
Park. This 100-acre site has been in the planning stages for several years now and this first phase will provide recreational
amenities to this rapidly growing section of our community. Future phases will continue to add to the park’s offerings and will
include larger amenities that will appeal to both local neighborhoods as well as the entire community.
I also encourage you to get out and walk, run, or bike the many trails that Bettendorf has to offer. Part of a rapidly growing
network of trails in Bettendorf and the Quad Cities as a whole, these trails offer tremendous connections for recreational,
fitness, and transportation opportunities that truly are on the cutting edge.
Please take the time to get out and explore the many options for fun that Bettendorf has to offer!

shots. Family members of all ages can enjoy the sport and best of all it’s free!
