City Parks
West Union has four city parks. They are the Lion's Park, Rotary Park, Clark Park, and Sunset Park. Shelter reservations are available for all parks and cost $15.00 per day. This is a reservation fee and not a user's fee. Shelters not posted with a "reserved" sign are available for use on a first come, first served basis. To reserve a West Union park shelter, please contact the Park and Recreation office at 563-422-3685.
The West Union Recreation Park is not a city park and is funded solely by grants and donations. It is maintained with volunteer help. Please consider donating some of your time to help maintain this beautiful park. It takes many hands and many hours of work to keep it beautiful. Suggested donations for the shelters are: Main Shelter on the left as you enter the park-$75; Sports Shelter across from the concession stand-$50; Pond Shelter-$25. To reserve the West Union Recreation Park shelters, please contact West Union Parks and Recreation at 563-380-8496. Following is a list of the parks with the amenities provided at each.
