Bridgeton is joining the competition, and we need YOUR help!

The City of Bridgeton is excited to participate in the Feed the Masses Food Drive Competition, a friendly challenge between several municipalities to see who can collect the most non-perishable food items!

We’re inviting everyone to join in and help Bridgeton make a difference. Donation boxes will be available at the following locations:

Bridgeton Recreation Center (BRC) Lobby

City of Bridgeton, Missouri (Government Center) Lobby

Berry Hill Golf Course

The competition will run November 1 thru November 30, and donations will be counted weekly before being delivered to a local food bank.

Every donation counts, and together we can help support those in need right here in our community while showing some Bridgeton spirit!

Thank you in advance for your generosity and participation. Let's show everyone what Bridgeton can do!

Congratulations to our Bridgeton Parks & Recreation staff!

Our team competed in the 2026 Region 4 MPRA Golf Tournament in Ballwin last week, and we're proud to announce that they are repeat champions for the second year in a row! Great work by Doug, Tommy, Evan and Vicki.

The Missouri Park and Recreation Association (MPRA) plays an important role in supporting parks and recreation opportunities, programs, facilities, and trails throughout Missouri. Its mission is to “advocate for the quality of life through effective use of parks and recreation opportunities, education, and resources.”

We're proud to support an organization that makes such a positive impact on our communities, and we're happy to represent Bridgeton while showing off our golf skills alongside other Region 4 municipalities!

Thank you to MPRA for hosting another great tournament. Congratulations again to our team!

Thursdays are for DASA!👨‍🦽‍➡️

As some of you may have noticed, Court 2 in the gym will be closed on Thursday nights from 6–8 PM. Athlete Sports Association will be renting the court most every Thursday from October 1 through April 2027.

We are honored to have DASA back at our facility, creating opportunities for inclusion through adaptive sports, including wheelchair basketball! Being an inclusive facility means providing opportunities for everyone to grow, connect, and play in ways that work for them. That is such an important part of Parks and Recreation, and we are proud to support programs that help make sports and recreation accessible to all.

Thank you, DASA, for being part of our recreation community! To learn more about DASA and all they provide, check out
