Recreation and Parks

The Recreation and Parks Department is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of community public park and recreation areas, and the community cemetery. The Department of 4 includes a Park Superintendent, Cemetery worker, Right-of-Way worker, Parks worker, and a seasonal pool staff of 8-9 instructor/lifeguards.

The Department is also responsible for maintaining the entrances to the Town, public right-of-ways, and maintenance of the Main Street lighting. The lightposts are enhanced during the summer season with flowers, and Snowflakes during the winter holiday season.

The Town offers a wide variety of recreational programs (click here) to it's residents, made possible by a joint facility use agreement with the Snowflake Unified School District.

Thursday Night at the Park is a summer offering at Pioneer Park. June through mid-August will find crowds gathered round the Band Shell at the park for a variety of free entertainment. Bring a chair or blanket and enjoy!

Recreation and Parks Director Don Camacho

A resident of Snowflake for over 21 years, Don moved to Snowflake to be near family. Originally from Hawaii, Don has extensive experience in developing recreation programs. A graduate of Brigham Young University with a Masters in Parks and Recreation Management, Don and his staff are committed to meeting the wants and needs of the public. "We strive to continue to improve the quality of our facilities," says Don, "and to ensure that our programs work well with the small-town atmosphere that makes Snowflake such a special place to raise a family." 

To keep the residents active, the Department offers a diverse recreation program, and even has plans for a fourplex ballfield and Community Recreation Center in the future. Always working to keep current with the pulse of his community, Don encourages residents to contact his office with suggestions on the programs. "As a small community, we have the flexibility to add or enhance programs that are recreational and educational as the need arises," Don says. "Frequently, we'll have residents with special skills or talents, and our recreation programs can serve as that outlet for them to share with other residents, provided that the facilities exist and are available."
