“Everyone Benefits” from the services provided by the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department (PRCS). The Department focuses on maintaining quality parks and providing high quality recreational programs to invite and retain business, generate retail sales, improve property values, provide economic impact, and attract citizens to the community.

The Department manages over 1,000 acres of parkland and includes Lakeshore Park, ITC Community Sports Park, Ella Mae Power Park, Rotary Park, Wildlife Woods Park, Brookfarm Park, Village Wood Lake Park, Fuerst Park, and Landings Park.

The Recreation Division provides 1,300 recreation programs and events for citizens of all ages and serves over 140,000 users annually. Recreation programs are offered based upon the national accreditation guidelines, citizen survey data, and partnerships. The Recreation Division includes cultural services, (theatre productions, creative arts programs, dance, Novi Concert Band, and Novi Choralaires), sports and fitness (soccer, softball, lacrosse, flag football, basketball, yoga, Pilates, etc.), community events (Memorial Day Parade, Ringing in the Holidays, Take a Child Outside Week), and camps. The Novi Ice Arena and Meadowbrook Commons are enterprise facilities managed by contracted services that are overseen by the PRCS Department.

The Senior Services Division, housed at the Novi Senior Center at Meadowbrook Commons, provides increased recreation opportunities and support services for the “boomer” and “older adult” population through special events, fitness/wellness programs, socials, travel trips, support groups, meal, and transportation services.

The Facility Reservation Division oversees facility reservations for meetings, weddings, showers, special events, and more in the Civic Center, Township Hall, Fuerst Park Amphitheater, and park shelters.

Volunteers provide nearly 29,000 hours of service yearly to PRCS, with approximately 12,000 of hours being completed in the area of youth sports programs and nearly 9,000 hours in the area of Senior Services and related programs. According to the Independent Sector, the value of a volunteer hour in Michigan as of 2009 was $20.85. The yearly benefit realized by the Parks Department through volunteerism is estimated to be $604,650.
