The City has recently acquired 191-acres of land adjacent to the existing park and has engaged a planning consultant to develop a comprehensive master plan for future enhancements. This planning effort will focus on enhancing Rotary Park’s amenities while introducing new features to serve the needs of the community and region. With the addition of a 44-acre agricultural parcel to the west and a 147-acre pasture and woodland parcel to the north, Rotary Park will grow to approximately 302-acres — nearly tripling its size.
Wentzville Parks and Recreation is interested in hearing about the venues and activities the Wentzville community would like to see at an enhanced and expanded Rotary Park. Please use the survey below to have your voice heard and share feedback.
Rotary Park Master Plan
Heartland Park Boardwalk
The boardwalk at Heartland Park was closed in 2023 due to safety concerns related to the structure. Wentzville Parks and Recreation appreciates the public’s patience during what has been a prolonged closure. As of September, 2025 renovation of the boardwalk has begun.
The work includes replacing the hand railing, composite decking and deck joists. The updated boardwalk will be the same design as before.
During construction, guests at Heartland Park can expect intermittent restricted access to parts of the park. Visitors can also expect to see contractors, construction equipment and materials being transported throughout the park. Sections of trails will be closed intermittently for guests and worker safety. We expect a trail closure near the boardwalk to be necessary in mid-October due to construction equipment.
Fireman’s Park Pickleball Courts and Cornhole Boards
The ribbon cutting ceremony for the first four pickleball courts and cornhole boards was completed on June 26, 2023. It has created a place for those who enjoy pickleball a place to play year-round when the indoor courts are unavailable during the summer. This project was completed primarily in-house by Wentzville’s Parks Division.
Four more pickleball courts are still planned which will eventually being the total number of courts at this park to eight. There is not yet an estimated date of completion for the remaining courts.
Fireman’s Park Parking
With the addition of pickleball courts added to Fireman’s Park in 2023, the park has seen a drastic increase in usage. Thirty additional parking stalls (including two ADA) are being added along Church Street to meet the growing need for parking at this location.
