If you want to take an aerobic class, enroll your child in summer camp or even learn how to paint watercolors, the Palos Heights Parks and Recreation Department is the place for you. The department occupies a large community center that contains classrooms, a preschool, a gym, tennis courts, dance studios and workout rooms. Classes are offered in a variety of areas and change seasonally. The very popular summer camp keeps kids occupied during their time away from school. The newly renovated workout rooms and dance studios are also increasingly popular. The Palos Heights swimming pool and all public parks are managed through this department.
