Share Your Voice: Should the Union Colony Civic Center Keep Its Name or Explore a New One? Survey

On April 21, 2025, the Union Colony Civic Center Advisory Board—a group chosen by City Council to support the UCCC’s mission—was asked to explore whether the UCCC should get a new name.

This survey is part of that effort. We want to know if the current name still fits, or if a new name would better reflect Greeley’s growth and the UCCC’s role as a major performing arts venue for the city and surrounding areas.

The survey only takes a few minutes to complete. Thanks for sharing your opinion—it will help guide future conversations.
