The National Recreation and Park Association operates under the mission of parks being equally accessible and available to all people regardless of income level, ethnicity, gender, ability, or age. We are seeking feedback from the public on how our parks measure up and allow access. With this feedback, we will look to incorporate inclusive practices into our parks and recreation planning.
Complete the survey and include your first and last name at the end to receive one free hour bike rental with our Pedal Pushers Bike Program.
