Centerville-Washington Park District

The Centerville-Washington Park District (CWPD) was created in 1959 by local residents with the foresight to realize that areas must be set aside as parks, while the community was developed with homes and businesses. The majority of funding for the Park District comes from a tax levy on the residents of Centerville and Washington Township. Over 1,030 acres have been preserved at 51 park locations in Centerville and Washington Township. CWPD is a Township Park District, a special district separate from the city of Centerville and Washington Township. The Park District is governed by a 3-member Board of Park Commissioners, who are appointed by the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas. Natural areas, scenic parks, and quality outdoor education, recreation, and fitness programs help make our community a special place to live. Continued local support, cooperation with other agencies, and great volunteers enable the Park District to meet the park and outdoor recreation demands of current and future generations.
