Park And Recreation Survey

From the Great Falls Park and Rec. Dept.:

The City of Great Falls Park and Recreation Department is releasing a survey on how the community of Great Falls views and uses its recreational opportunities and trees, landscaped areas and parks. This survey will consist of questions covering issues about “barriers” to community recreation, structured and non-structured recreational opportunities, and any needs not being met for both youth and adults to ensure a high quality of life.

A nation wide trend shows that with American citizens, three-fourths give very high marks to public park and recreation resources and three-fifths perceive parks as being “necessary” or “essential” to their community’s quality of life. The Park and Recreation Department is using this opportunity to assess our community and use the results to better understand what is needed for residents and to develop a recreation plan.

The survey is posted on the City of Great Falls web page and will be available in paper format at all City facilities, ( i.e. Park and Recreation Office, Recreation Center, Natatorium, Civic Center and Library). The web address to locate the survey is www.visionwestmt.com/recreation.htm.

The survey will be available for input until November 21, 2008. A report on the findings will be available in December. For more information on the survey or to request a survey, contact the Park and Recreation Department at 771-1265.

The Park and Recreation Department would like to thank everyone in advance for helping with this endeavor to continue to ensure the quality of life for the citizens of Great Falls.
