Located at the base of Little and Big Cottonwood Canyons, Cottonwood Heights Parks and Recreation Center has provided parks, recreation, and fitness for the community since 1967. Beginning with a couple of pools and an adjacent building, into what we are now the Service Area has grown exponentially. We now have seven pools (outdoor & indoor), an Olympic-sized ice sheet, full-sized basketball court, racquet ball courts, walking/running tracks, multiple cardio and fitness rooms, group fitness classes, various youth lessons and programs, outdoor pickleball and tennis courts and multiple parks- just to name a few! We have something for everyone!
We are an independent special taxing district within Cottonwood Heights boundaries, and a separate entity from Cottonwood Heights City and Salt Lake County Parks and Recreation. CHPRSA is governed by elected board members, one from each of the three respective districts comprising the service area.
