The City of Bell Gardens Recreation & Community Services Department’s vision is to create community through people, parks and programs. In order to do this properly, staff has committed to focusing their energy in the following areas: youth and teen development, improving economic vitality, health & wellness, educational advancements, lifelong learning for adults and senior citizens, cultural enrichment programs, effective collaborations, and increased safety and security through preventive programs for our youth. Most importantly, our focus is to provide a safe and fun learning environment for the residents of Bell Gardens to enjoy.
Our department is led by a diverse and knowledgeable staff that truly loves recreation and giving back to the community they serve. 48% of our staff are Bell Gardens residents and as a result, this brings a wonderful sense of “home” to our department. Every event, activity, class, or program is considered with the community’s best interests at heart. Simultaneously, the community has demonstrated their passion, which is proven by the number of people of all ages who come out and enjoy the events we plan in our parks and recreational facilities. Throughout the past year, we have served over 40,000 residents through one form of recreation or another. Overall, this represents a 100% increase in recreational programming. We have worked very hard to make positive changes in the department. We hope that you enjoy what you are experiencing and join us in our desire to “create community.”
If you ever have any concerns or suggestions for future planning please contact the front office and let us know your ideas.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve. It is a pleasure!

Pamela Yugar,
