Parks & Recreation Facilities

The City of Newberry is very proud of its park system that consists of five parks with an area totaling 55 acres and meeting many needs from passive to active recreation. Staffed by a Director, Assistant Director, and two groundskeepers, these employees, as is characteristic of all of our city employees, wear many hats. They all fill in where necessary to get the job done and it really shows. For questions call (352) 472-5663
