Parowan

Parowan City provides activities and programs that bring families together in fun, healthy ways. Their four parks, new pickleball courts, and community pool provide gathering places for residents, and their youth sports leagues are well-loved. Twice a month, residents can pick up food from their local food bank, and the Parowan Prevention Coalition is very active in supporting healthy lifestyles and promoting community resources.
