RECREATION

The City of La Cañada Flintridge has worked to maximize the recreation facilities it can provide for its citizens through a joint use agreement with the La Cañada Unified School District. Sports fields, tennis courts, basketball courts and a skate park are all located on School District-owned property, but operated and maintained by the City so that the public can use these facilities during non-school hours. The City assumed operation of the Lanterman Auditorium in 2003 and marketing efforts are increasing the use of this facility.

Municipal parks include Memorial Park on Foothill Boulevard at La Cañada Blvd.; Glenola Park on Angeles Crest Highway at Vista del Valle; Glenhaven Park on Glenhaven Drive at La Granada Way; and Mayors' Discovery Park on Foothill Boulevard west of the 2 Freeway on-ramp. These parks provide green space and play opportunities for adults and children.

There are several hiking and riding trails in the City, maintained either by the City or the County of Los Angeles. The City Council has placed a priority on increasing the trail system and vital links in the system are being planned and constructed.

The La Cañada Flintridge OneCityOneBook Committee selects a single book each year for community reading and discussion. Seeking works with broad community appeal, they choose primarily from fiction, memoir and history. Activities surrounding the selection are held in October of each year.
The website also includes handy directories to local book clubs and
bookstores. Please click here to be redirected to One City/One Book Web site.

Organized recreation is not provided through the City, but various sports groups, The Community Center of La Cañada Flintridge and the Crescenta-Canada Family YMCA provide recreational activities.
