Recreation

From city parks and a scenic 3.5-mile greenway to sports complexes, a full community center, and the historic library, White House offers year-round recreation for every generation.

White House Municipal Park

The park contains both active and passive recreational facilities, including:

  • 3 tennis courts
  • 6 baseball / softball fields
  • Full basketball court
  • Soccer field
  • Football field & stadium
  • 2 volleyball courts
  • Large playground area
  • 4 picnic shelters
  • Nature trail

The park's nature trail is an approximately 8-foot-wide paved path with way-stations complete with benches and trash receptacles.

W.L. Anderson Sports Complex

Five soccer fields (two lighted) plus a concession, storage, and restroom facility. The complex is home to all recreation soccer leagues organized by the White House Youth Soccer Association.

White House Greenway

Divided into four phases for development purposes, the White House Greenway winds through retail, residential, and agricultural areas as well as heavily wooded stretches along Honey Run Creek.

Phase I

Begins at the Andrew Jackson Trailhead adjacent to White House Municipal Park on Highway 76. From there, the greenway heads south past Heritage High School to the James K. Polk Trailhead on Highway 31W, then crosses Tyree Springs Road to the Tyree Springs Trailhead beside White House High School.

Phases II – IV

Continue from the Tyree Springs Trailhead beneath North Palmers Chapel Road and Highway 76 / Portland Road, then follow Honey Run Creek through a scenic wooded corridor. Phase IV finishes at the Honey Run Creek Trailhead on Highway 31W, approximately 1.5 miles north of the Highway 31 & 76 intersection.

The greenway covers exactly 3.5 miles and is enjoyed by walkers, joggers, runners, cyclists, and roller-bladers. Federal grants cover most of the $4M+ project cost.

White House Community Center

The Community Center houses a gymnasium, cafeteria, auditorium, and senior center. The gym is home to Parks & Recreation Youth Basketball, adult basketball leagues, indoor volleyball, gymnastics classes, and instructional basketball camps. All four facilities are available for rent — see the Parks & Recreation page for hours and rental rates.

White House Library & Museum

The White House Library and Museum is a reproduction of the original White House Inn — the landmark that gave the city its name. The library offers nearly 20,000 volumes and hosts activities for children and adults.
