2017 Sonoma County Outdoor Recreation Economic Impact Survey

The Sonoma County Economic Development Board, in coordination with the Outdoor Recreation Business Council, is conducting a short survey to gain a more comprehensive understanding of what can be done to increase the success of the outdoor recreation sector in Sonoma County. As a business that is involved with outdoor recreation activities, you are invited to help find opportunities to grow your business and the local outdoor recreation sector. This brief 5-minute survey is intended to do the following:

• Help community leaders understand the economic impact of the outdoor recreation sector in Sonoma County

• Provide information on the current strengths and future opportunities for outdoor recreation-related businesses

• Identify any obstacles that can be alleviated or removed to help local outdoor recreation businesses succeed

Your responses will be kept strictly confidential. The collected data will be analyzed and used to create a 2018 Economic Impact Report for the Outdoor Recreation Sector, which will be distributed to the news media, elected officials, and the broader business community.

Thank you for taking time to participate!
