The Highlands Recreation District was established in 1957, and in 1958 residents voted to purchase 3.45 acres of land and construct the facility and swimming pool. The Highlands Recreation District operates under the Community Services District law pursuant to government code 61000 et seq for the purpose of providing recreational services within the District. Some activities are available to non-residents of the District. The Highlands Recreation District states that it is dedicated to providing beneficial and enriching programs and services to its patrons and a place to create and promote health, well-being and community. In 2018, the District was awarded a Special District Leadership Foundation’s District Transparency Certificate of Excellence for its website content. The HRD Baby Pool and rock walls are closed until further notice, with updates to be provided when available.
