Mission Statement


Philosophy
The Westfield Parks and Recreation Department is dedicated to providing quality recreation programs for the residents of the community. The most important aspect of these programs is for the participant. Every decision made by those involved will be made with the best interest of the participant in mind. In order for our programs to reflect the philosophy of the department, it is important that every person involved is working under the same objectives.

The primary objective of the programs are:
Participant enjoyment: Providing children and parents by having fun as you teach them the fundamentals to play the game or program.

Insuring a positive approach toward physical, psychological and social development: physically through learning skills, psychologically through developing feelings of self-worth, and socially through the principals of sportsmanship.
 
Slogan
The outcome of a young athlete or adult is more important than the outcome of the game!
