Thank you to everyone that took the time to complete the Groveland Recreation Center projects survey. In total, we received 218 responses! This data will be very helpful for the development of plans for the park. In the next couple weeks, we'll summarize the data and share publicly. 

As we summarize the data, we will begin to prepare site concepts and reach to to project contacts for additional engagement opportunities with the community for feedback on design direction.
