Dothan's Leisure Services offers multiple activities for the entire family. While called Leisure Services, it also acts as a huge draw for our tourism industry in Dothan. Tennis courts and Baseball/softball fields bring huge dollars into Dothan. Vacation patterns have changed among families and now they travel with their kids to multiple cities to play ball, tennis, and swim. The plus for Dothan is our hotels are full and they have to eat, so eating out is the plan for the day. This money stays in Dothan. A huge percentage of visitors money is not only on lodging and food, but they shop in our stores. It's always exciting to shop in different cities!
Not only do we have these activities that draw in money, Dothan Leisure Services has parks, walking trails and picnic pavilions for the home folk to enjoy. The following is a list of all the aspects of Dothan Leisure Services:
21 Total Parks
7 Recreation Centers
11 Playgrounds
6 Picnic Pavilions
47 Tennis Courts
31 Baseball/softball fields
4 Soccer Fields
5 Swimming Pools (1 indoor)
1 Water Park
4 Walking Trails
2 Football fields
1 Football Stadium
1 BMX Track
What a list! We should never fuss about not having anything to do. There is something for the entire family and all ages. Leisure Services Director Elston Jones is doing a great job! Check it out and get involved.
Playtime is great!
