Plenty of Opportunities

Chesterfield offers plenty of opportunities for indoor and outdoor recreation. Options include the three indoor ice rinks at the Summit Center. The city offers an 8,000-square-foot leisure pool and a 25-yard lap pool at Chesterfield’s Aquatic Center, located in Central Park. The city plans additional features for the Aquatic Center in the summer of 2007.

The YMCA, located at 16464 Burkhardt Place, and the Jewish Community Center, located at 16801 Baxter Road, offer a variety of amenities to keep individuals and families active.

The athletic fields of the Chesterfield Valley Athletic Complex are a source of local pride. The complex encompasses 105 acres and dozens of baseball/softball, football and soccer fields, pavilions and playgrounds. The City of Chesterfield has joined forces with St. Louis Cardinals superstar Albert Pujols and former St. Louis Cardinals Golden Glove catcher Mike Matheny to construct the new “Miracle Field” at the Chesterfield Valley Athletic Complex. Instead of using dirt and natural grass, the “Miracle Field” has a rubberized surface, making it easier for youngsters who are athletically challenged. The community is also home to numerous health and fitness clubs.

The city has partnered with the Great Rivers Greenway District, and is currently working with consultants on the planning and design of a trail system which will extend on or near the Monarch-Chesterfield Levee in the valley. Phase I construction of the trail will extend from the Summit Ice Complex to the Chesterfield Valley Athletic Complex.
