enjoying some of the recreational opportunities that Airway
Heights Parks & Recreation has to offer? We are happy to
report that we are finishing up on the updates to Landreth
Park. The turf areas have been upgraded from dry land
grasses to a higher quality turf grass. We are anticipating the
delivery of fitness trail equipment that will be installed along
the pathway along with the addition of much needed benches
and trash receptacles. In October, we will be completing this
phase of the improvements by partnering with the Spokane
Conservation District to replace a large number of the trees
that have died over the years.
We will continue to work to bring back essential staff roles
that were eliminated due to the budget impacts from the
pandemic. This will allow us to continue to bring back all of
the programs and amenities that improve the physical, mental,
and social health that the community has grown to appreciate.
Airway Heights Parks and Recreation has a lot of exciting
things coming up over the next few months and we are
confident there is a program, park, or activity for you and        We are always looking for friendly and motivated
your family to enjoy!                                                   individuals to join our amazing team.

  to Airway Heights Rec Center and I immediately knew this
  was the place to start. I signed up that day and began the
  journey. Early on, I met Jared and talked about training
  and he set me up with Zecheriah and we got to work.
  Zecheriah took the time to go over nutrition planning as well
  as good exercise habits. 3.5 months later, I’m no longer
  within a diabetic range, I’m down almost 50 pounds, and
  have a great support group around me to keep me moving
