The New Castle Park system consists of eight parks, with the largest being Baker Park to the south and Osborne Park to the north. There are also as many as nine additional pieces of land which fall under park responsibility. Opportunities for family outdoor recreation are tremendous.
 
The Park Department maintains a private nursery for growing trees, flowers and shrubs to make it possible for the city to reduce expenses while adding beauty throughout the community.  These plantings will be used to increase the number of trees on city properties as well as replace fallen trees.  It is hoped that the project will be so successful that it might generate additional income for the department in the future.
