Point Roberts Parks Board Community Survey

Dear Point Roberts Resident, Property Owner, Visitor:

The Point Roberts Park District would like to determine how park facilities and programs are currently used and those that our community would like to see in the future. We ask for your help by filling out this short 10 min anonymous survey, to help us prioritize the needs of our community. Please note that Lighthouse Park, Lily Point and Monument Park are not under the jurisdiction of the Point Roberts Park Board, but rather are managed by Whatcom County Parks and Recreation.

We would ask that you only fill out the survey once per person of voting age. In addition, we ask that you talk with your children, under the age of 18, to ensure their ideas are shared. If you would like more information about Point Roberts Parks and Recreation facilities or programs, please call us at 1-360-945-5424 or visit Point Roberts Park and Recreation District No. 1 - Point Roberts, WA

On behalf of your Parks Board thank you for your participation!
