Year 'Round Recreational Programs
For Adults and Youths

Rec Park Survey
Swain County would like your opinions on possible improvements to the Rec Park. Please fill out our anonymous online survey.
The Swain County Recreation Department provides year ‘round programs for Adults and Youths and includes outdoor areas as well as an indoor recreation facility. Resources include basketball, soccer, football, tennis, free weights, playground, swimming, skateboarding and baseball. The indoor facility also has a meeting room for community use. We also work with Little League and Senior Games programs, and sponsor events such as the Santa Breakfast and Easter Egg Hunt.
