City Spotlight

Gainesville's pools are now open! The department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs offers many pools, swimming lessons and general summer fun all over the city. Visit the Aquatics section of the webpage for more details and pricing!

The Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs invites the public to join our annual series of family-friendly free concerts in the downtown Bo Diddley Community Plaza. Featuring some of the best local and regional musicians, this series runs for nearly six months and is highly anticipated by its thousands of fans. Since the Plaza’s dedication in 1976, all ages have brought their blankets and lawn chairs into our beautiful downtown amphitheatre and joined in the fun under the stars.

City Hall is looking for volunteers! People are needed to help with the front desk and help incoming citizens. Attached is a letter from a volunteer that has been with us for a long time and has had a very positive experience. Contact the City Manager's office with any questions or to sign up! 352-393-5000
