In West Bloomfield, community isn’t a concept—it’s a way of life. Nestled among lakes and lush green spaces, our thriving township offers more than just beautiful scenery. Thanks to the incredible West Bloomfield Parks team, led by Executive Director Kelly Hyer, families have a wealth of opportunities to engage, explore and invest in their well-being right in their own backyard.
The expansive parks system spans 570 acres of parkland and 13 miles of scenic trails. Yet the true heartbeat of West Bloomfield Parks is the depth of programs and popular events like the annual Marshbank Park Campout and the festive Trick-or-Treat Trail.
While these experiences create cherished memories, there’s always something new to explore with a robust lineup of fitness classes, from invigorating yoga sessions to creative painting workshops.
Seniors, too, have a dedicated space for wellness and connection. The popular Stretch and Tone class, offered free twice a week, is a simple yet impactful way to promote balance and mobility—essential to fall prevention and long-term well-being.
Living in West Bloomfield means having direct access to resources that support physical and mental well-being. With a deep understanding of the role recreation plays in a fulfilling life, Hyer and her team work tirelessly to provide accessible, engaging spaces for all.
“People need an outlet—whether it’s a quiet walk in the nature preserve or an energizing group fitness class,” she says. “We strive to be that third place beyond work and home, where you can connect, recharge and invest in your health.”
For those who prefer leisure with a touch of luxury, West Bloomfield Parks even curates premium experiences, such as an all-inclusive trip to Mackinac Island’s Grand Hotel, ensuring that recreation is as enriching as it is rewarding.
So, whether you’re lacing up your walking shoes, signing up for a painting class or simply taking in the beauty of nature, one thing is certain—West Bloomfield Parks is an investment in a richer, healthier life.
