Parks
Marshalltown features more than 20 parks / recreation areas. The Parks & Recreation Department is also responsible for the Riverview Park Campground, inspection and removal of terrace trees, and park flowerbeds through our Adopt-A-Bed program. Park maintenance is an ongoing - year round job. During winter months parks staff remove snow on city sidewalks and bridges while mowing city parks in the summer. We encourage people to join our Adopt-A-Park program by helping to pick up trash and branches in neighborhood parks.
