Bristol Parks and Recreation Survey

Shape the Future of Recreation in Bristol

The Bristol Parks and Recreation Survey invites residents, families, and outdoor enthusiasts to share what recreation means to them and how parks and outdoor spaces shape their quality of life. Parks, trails, and recreation programs are where communities gather, children play, families make memories, and residents stay active and connected to nature.

Your input will help guide a community-driven vision for Bristol’s parks and recreation system — improving access to parks and open spaces, strengthening connections between neighborhoods and trails, and expanding programs and amenities that reflect the interests, values, and lifestyles of the community. By sharing your perspective, you are helping shape the future of recreation in Bristol.
