Redwood Falls Parks & Recreation Mission Statement
The mission of the Redwood Falls Parks and Recreation Department is to provide quality facilities
and programs for all. Quality Parks and Recreation Programming enhances economic development,
community crime prevention, and adds to the quality of life for ALL residents and visitors of the com-
munity.
We would like to achieve a “community climate” of personal wellness, and mutual respect.
Community facilities and parks are used by citizens of all ages participating in meaningful recreation
activities. Facilities are well cared for due to a systematic plan for immediate care and crucial long-
term maintenance. All citizens will be welcomed and encouraged to utilize the park system and par-
ticipate in the City Recreation programs.

ZUMBA FITNESS
Zumba is a fun way to get a great cardio workout into your fitness routine. Combining
70% Latin dance moves with 30% fitness components, Zumba is an all over workout
great for beginners and novices alike. From the moment you begin the pounding Latin
beats will get your body swaying to the Mambo and feet moving to a Salsa or Merengue.
No dance experience necessary, just a great attitude and the ability to let yourself go
with the music! So, ditch the workout and join the party!!! The instructor recommends
to bring water and a towel, wear workout shoes with little to no traction on the bottom
(such as an old pair of running shoes or dance aerobic sneakers).
