We are fortunate in our community to have beautiful and historic parks that are available to the residents of Cahokia Heights and our visitors. We are dedicated to providing the highest quality of service. We strive to provide a fun and safe environment in our properly maintained parks to meet the social, cultural and physical needs of our community. We also strive to preserve the beauty of the parks and most importantly, to bring children and families into our parks and give them a reason to stay and play for a lifetime.
