For the Safety of Our Children
Participant Dismissal Policy
The Westfield Parks and Recreation Department is
committed to enrich the quality of life through the
promotion, development, and maintenance of public
recreation and enrichment opportunities, park lands and
related facilities.
The Westfield Parks and Recreation Commission has
monthly meetings on the third Monday of each month. All
meetings are open to the public and are held in Room 315 in
City Hall at 7:00p.m. Anyone who would like to address the
Commission needs to be placed on the agenda by calling the
Parks and Recreation Department (572-6263) by the Monday
before each meeting.
The Parks and Recreation Commission is made up
of eight members from the community appointed by the
Mayor and approved by the City Council. The purpose of
the Commission is to set policies and advise the City Council
on needed parks and recreation programs; oversee the city
recreation programs and park areas; and plan, acquire and
develop recreation facilities, parks and open space areas to
meet future needs as the city grows
Sincere Appreciation
The commission would like to thank Westfield Public
Schools for the use of school facilities. The extra time and
energy from secretaries, custodians, teachers and principals
is greatly appreciated.

to inclement weather, etc. please call the department at 572
– 6263 then press 7, or visit
www.leaguelineup.com/wprcancellations
Please be aware that some programs many cancel due to the
fact there are not enough registered to hold the program.
When this happens, you will be notified and offered either
an opportunity to take another program, receive credit or
receive a refund. Every effort will be made to notify you
if a program has been cancelled or changed. Programs are
subject to change in time, date, location and/or personnel.

The department’s brochure is distributed throughout the
Westfield Public Schools and private schools. Mailed to all
past participants and available at the library and Mayor’s
Office. The department produces a Spring/Summer and
Fall/Winter brochure.
Any parent who does not want their child to be allowed to

until they arrive to get them. Program pick-up permission
slips and information may be obtained at time of registration
or anytime during the program. Parents are encouraged to
be on time when picking up their children.

Volunteers
Volunteers can demonstrate to the community that people
really care about the parks and recreation programs by
wanting to help with the operation and improvements
of them. Citizens who volunteer can take back into the
community a true picture of the Westfield Parks and
Recreation Department and can be ambassadors of good
will. These are some of the reasons why we encourage the
services of volunteers whenever possible to supplement, but
not replace, the services of paid employees.
Refund Policy
The Westfield Parks and Recreation Department reserves
the right to cancel, postpone, or combine programs. If
insufficient enrollment causes an activity to be cancelled,
participants will receive a full refund. Please allow 3-4
weeks for the processing of refunds.
To be eligible for a requested refund, the request must be
received three working days before program has started.
No refunds/credits will be granted after a program/
activity has met more than two times. Your request will
need to be a letter to the department stating the reason why
you are requesting a refund along with your name and
address. There will be an administrative fee of $10.00 per
program refunded. If you chose to have a credit placed on
your household account, the credit cannot be transferred
to a refund check.

Adopt a Park or Public Area Program
The City and the Westfield Parks and Recreation Department has
embarked on a project to revitalize city’s parks and public areas.
The city makes every effort to maintain superior parks and
public spaces, but the realization is that maintenance needs to
be stepped up in order to increase the aesthetics and usability.
Who Can Adopt A Park or Public Area?
Any business, civic associations, schools, neighborhood
associations, military, scout groups, individual families,
churches, or community-based groups. Groups make a two year
commitment to assist in maintaining the park or public area.
What Commitment and Contribution Must a Group Make?
We ask groups to conduct a cleanup of their adopted area in
accordance with the responsibilities outlined for each area.
Some areas require more time than others depending on
size, planting and maintenance. Groups may work on flower
bed improvement projects, tree care, perform minor park
maintenance and/or perform other needed services.
Groups may perform the actual labor and provide materials or
make a monetary donation to assist in maintaining the area. For
a complete description of the program, contact the department
and a packet will be mailed.
