The Parks and Recreation Department offers recreational services to its residents in four main park facilities plus several smaller neighborhood parks. Our primary location, Westland Gardens Park, is currently being renovated and new facilities added. A brand new banquet hall has just been completed which will accommodate up to 120 people for weddings, parties or other gatherings in a beautiful setting with state of the art accommodations. Residents may rent the hall, for a modest cost, or other outdoor park facilities. Residents can also play tennis and basketball on our newly built courts, swim in the heated swimming pool, watch high school baseball games in our professional sized baseball field, or let their children play in our large, well-equipped playground. Construction of a new children’s wet zone is underway and will provide a fun and safe play environment for our younger visitors.

The Park also boasts a variety of programs for our community’s youth. There is an ongoing baseball league with up to 400 participants, a swim team, tennis and dance classes, YMCA summer program, Neko-Do Systems Goju Ryu karate classes, soccer, and a basketball leagues as well. Westland Gardens Park is fully staffed, in order to insure the safety and well being of the children and visitors.

Adjacent to Hialeah Gardens Elementary School is Golden Eagle Park. The three-acre park contains a playground area, bathrooms, concession stand, and Gazebos which can also be rented for birthday parties or family celebrations. Golden Eagle Park is designed for children aged 12 and under.

In the central area of the city is Joe Sherron Park. Particularly designed with families in mind, this facility features outdoor gazebos and a children’s playground. Designed for shade and picnics, Bernie Wilson Park is within the southern district of the city. All around the City, small area and linear parks designed for families to take an afternoon stroll together, are available.
