A refreshing walk along the Mississippi riverfront, a scenic bike ride along Duck Creek Parkway, a friendly game of hoops a the Life Fitness Center or a leisurely round of golf at one of four public and private golf courses. For Bettendorf residence, all are within minutes and just blocks from home.
Few communities can offer the convenience and variety of recreation available to our citizens.
Or choose from a rich variety of local performances - classics by the Quad City Symphony, opera during the Quad City Mozart Festival, jazz at the Bix Biederbecks Memorial Jazz Festival, or blues on the levee at the Mississippi Valley Blues Fest. Or, join in as a member of the Bettendorf Park Board Band. Theater-lovers have local professional troupes, touring companies, summer stock musicals and amateur play productions to enjoy. Sports enthusiasts have a full venue of professional events from the PGA's Quad City Golf Classic to professional competition of the Continental Basketball Association, Colonial Hockey League, and Class A Minor League baseball. Tourists and local residents alike frequent four riverboats docking along the Mississippi river in the area.
