Recreation & Community Services
The City of Sonoma’s Recreation & Community Services program provides opportunities for residents of all ages to learn, play, and connect. Through partnerships with local nonprofits and service providers, the City supports a wide range of recreational, cultural, and educational programs that enrich community life.
The program is guided in part by the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Commission, which advises the City Council on recreation policy and priorities.
