Clinton Parks and Recreation

The soundtrack to your Fourth of July starts in Clinton.

Before the fireworks light up the sky, we're bringing two incredible acts to the stage at Red, White & Blue Fest!

John Clayton White | 5:30 p.m.
Mississippi's own blues prodigy takes the stage with jaw-dropping guitar skills and a soulful sound that's earned him recognition well beyond his years.

The Fountain City Players | 7:15 p.m.
A high-energy, family-friendly performance packed with patriotic favorites and crowd-pleasing classics that will have everyone singing along.

Then, cap off the night with our spectacular 15-minute patriotic fireworks show beginning at 9:00 p.m.!

Gates open at 4:00 p.m. with the Fun Zone, games, and fantastic local food from Mazzio's, Dad's Dawgs, Sweet Mama's, Copeland's, Lucy's Lemonade, Sno Biz, and Coach's Creamery.

Free to attend with $10 event parking.

Bring your lawn chairs, tents, or blankets, and celebrate America's 250th birthday at Clinton's Annual Red, White & Blue Fest.

Baseball Camp is postponed for this upcoming week due to the weather.

We will update with new dates shortly.

🔥 Congratulations to RJ Dees. He threw a 3 inning, no hitter, complete game for our 11u All Star team. Way to pitch!

TODAY IS THE DAY! All voting will be at Traceway Park, 200 Soccer Row! See you there!

Every bite builds.

For every $10 spent at a Clinton restaurant, 20 cents is invested directly into Parks & Recreation. For a $15 burger basket, that’s about 30 cents. For a $25 family meal, it’s 50 cents. Individually, it’s small. Collectively, it becomes community improvements that benefit thousands of residents.

Since voters approved the tax in 2022, the revenue has helped fund:

✅ Towne Park Pickleball Complex
✅ New and upgraded restrooms at Traceway Park
✅ Brighton Park’s inclusive playground
✅ Ongoing improvements to the Traceway Softball Fourplex

Clinton isn’t alone. Communities across Mississippi use similar restaurant taxes to invest in quality-of-life amenities, including places like Southaven, Hattiesburg, Ridgeland, Senatobia, Raleigh, and Oakland.

A special election to renew the 2% Parks & Recreation restaurant tax will be held at Traceway Park (200 Soccer Row) on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. Polls Open at 7:00 a.m.

Let's talk about a park amenity everyone appreciates, especially when they need it.

Recent improvements at Traceway Park and Kids Towne Park have included updated restroom facilities that better serve the families, athletes, and visitors who use our parks each year.

As a reminder, the Special Election regarding the 2% Parks & Recreation Restaurant Tax will be held tomorrow, June 9, at Traceway Park.

Polls will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Because while restrooms may not be the most glamorous park improvement, they're definitely one of the most appreciated.

💍🏆Congratulations to our Clinton 9u All Stars. They are our champions in the All Star Classic. Way to fight hard to bring it home boys!
