What do you want to see? Help develop a community-powered comprehensive plan to guide Asheville Parks & Recreation’s decisions for the next 10-15 years to connect, fix, build, and preserve recreation programs and parkland. Collaborating on the Recreate Asheville plan to guide programs, sports and leisure spaces, and parks for future generations is an important opportunity for Ashevillians to create a long-term vision and help inform how projects are prioritized to meet the modern needs of our city – from major improvements to existing parks to strategies that use recreation programs to build stronger neighborhoods.
