  • The Chehalis, Washington park system is administered by the Chehalis Parks and Recreation Department. Trails that connect Chehalis with locations beyond the city limits are maintained in conjunction with other local jurisdictions, state government agencies, and/or local non-profit groups and volunteers. The city contains eleven parks, many of which were created on land donated by local citizens. Millett Field, begun in 1898, is the oldest park still in use. The newest addition to the city's park and recreation program, Stan Hedwall Park, was acquired in 2014. A large donation in 2004 to restore Alexander Park has led to more than half of the parks being renovated or rebuilt, almost exclusively by volunteer efforts. Funding for this undertaking was secured thru government grants, charitable acts of local businesses, and citizen fundraising. Residents and visitors have access to approximately 273 acres (110 ha) of parks built for leisure, children's activities, water access, or athletics, along with numerous trails and footpaths providing over 75 miles (121 km) of walking, hiking, horse riding, and biking recreation.
