FAYETTEVILLE, AR— The City of Fayetteville’s Parks, Natural Resources and Cultural Affairs Department is developing a new 10-year parks system master plan, Imagine Tomorrow’s Parks.

This project started in 2018 and included targeted efforts to gather public feedback on, and bring awareness of the current state of Fayetteville’s park system.

The City welcomes the residents to engage and participate in development of this new master plan, on the following locations:

  • Saturday, Feb. 19, 10-11:30 a.m. at Veterans Memorial Park Pavilion (4451 N. Vantage Drive)

These events will be held outdoors, so wearing masks is encouraged, but not required.

The meeting on Feb.19 will begin with a presentation by the consulting team, followed by opportunities for attendees to provide in-depth feedback.

Several family friendly activities will take place during the meeting, like archery zone, disc golf, a group trail run provided by Ozark Trail Running Club, a group mountain bike ride provided by Ozark Off Road Cyclists and a children’s bike playground provided by Buddy Pegs

Drinks and snacks will be available for purchase from on-site food trucks.
