The Grand Junction Parks and Recreation Department is asking community members to partake in an online survey and interactive community meeting regarding the Community Recreation Center.

The survey will be available through April 6, and feedback will help guide the facilities brand development.

The interactive community meeting will take place April 1, 5:30 p.m., at the Lincoln Park Barn, 910 N. 12th St. Staff will provide project updates, and gather feedback from residents on brand elements. Attendees can participate in hands-on activities and sign up for upcoming construction tours of the new rec center.

“The vision for the Community Recreation Center is to create a community hub that promotes an active and healthy lifestyle for all generations,” Parks and Recreation Director, Ken Sherbenou said. “We’re excited to continue engaging with community members as community input has led this process all along.”

City Council adopted the final plan for the rec center in November 2022, and an April 2023 ballot initiative approved by voters included a 0.14 percent sales tax increase and the debt necessary to build the facility. The facility has been expanded beyond the initial plan with awarded grants and partnerships.
