Welcome

Howell Area Parks and Recreation Authority is the heart of our community, bringing us together and creating a sense of belonging. From the Howell Melon Festival to the Oceola Community Center, Howell Rec offers programs and events that enrich the lives of all our residents. The facilities are more than just buildings; they are places where friendships are formed, memories are made, and our community grows together. 

This is why we are excited to help pass the Howell Recreation millage proposal which will appear on your November 5, 2024, ballot. The proposal is a modest millage of 0.5 mills, which for our residents means just an extra 21 cents a day per household located within the recreation authority.
