Where We Live

Redmond Area Park and Recreation District was incorporated on July 8, 1975 for the purpose of providing park and recreation facilities for the residents residing within the boundaries of the district.  At this time, the district's facilities include the Cascade Swim Center and CSC Park, the RAPRD Activity Center, the High Desert Sports Complex, Borden Beck Park, and undeveloped parks at Majestic Ridge in Redmond and outside the city limits at Tetherow Crossing.

The district will begin development of the Majestic Summit Park in 2009.  This neighborhood park is planned to have a picnic area, small playground and walking trails. 

The district offers a variety of recreation programs.  These include youth and adult sports, before and after school programs, red cross classes, art classes, swim lessons and many others.  Please look though our recreation guide for all of our offerings.
