Harnett County Parks and Recreation Seeks Community Input to Shape the Future of Parks and Programs

Tuesday, April 8, 2025

Harnett County Parks and Recreation is inviting residents to help shape the future of parks, programs, and recreational services by participating in a countywide community survey, open now through April 30, 2025.

This survey gives citizens the opportunity to share feedback on the current parks and programs, as well as offer suggestions for new amenities and services. The feedback gathered by residents will play a significant role in shaping the future direction of the department’s offerings.

“We want to offer programs, facilities, and recreational opportunities that meet the needs of our community,” said William Bryant, Parks and Recreation Supervisor. “We want to know how to improve, and this survey will allow us to gain insight on the quality of our parks and programs as the public views them.”

Whether residents use the parks or services seasonally, monthly, or daily, please take the time to complete the survey to ensure it meets your needs.

Community participation is essential, as the department is committed to making citizen-driven decisions. The feedback received will serve as a blueprint for the future of Parks and Recreation.
