Concord Parks & Recreation survey - Input for FY2027 budget

During our most recent budget hearings, we learned that there hasn't been a recent survey of recreational interests. In order to be better informed, I created one. City Councilor Michele Horne and Concord School Board member Barb Higgins also provided input. 
 The survey is anonymous and takes less than six minutes to complete. The deadline is Saturday, May 30th, to have the results before our next budget hearing. 
Include your email at the end and I will happily share the results with you, too. 
 Please share this survey on any other channels you think would help capture the perspective of Concord &amp; Penacook residents.&nbsp;<a href="https://forms.gle/GbkMhKYT5WNysgp67" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">forms.gle/GbkMhKYT5WNysgp67</a>
