About us
The Village of Ruidoso Parks & Recreation Department manages over 15 parks, sports complexes, lakes and trails serving residents and visitors in the Sacramento Mountains of southern New Mexico.
Our mission is to provide safe, well-maintained recreation facilities and programs that bring the community together — from youth baseball leagues to summer concerts at Wingfield Park.
