2010 And Beyond

Park, recreation, open space and positive youth activity are recurring themes at the Envision forums. I have reviewed all of the comments from the forums to date. By my informal count, 13 percent of the “What do you want others to know about Prince George’s County” and 40 percent of the visions pertaining to how future Prince Georgians will ENJOY their county pertain to parks, recreation and related topics. These are striking numbers that show intense pride in green space and recreation services.

Here is a typical example: “Its 2030 and people can live, work, shop and play in walkable communities connected by convenient public transportation and bike trails, separated by open space and parks.” I interpret this to mean that parks and trails are essential to enhancing community desirability and livability. Do you agree?

Also, If you have a passion for parks and recreation, I urge you to become involved in the 2010 and Beyond project. It is charting the future of parks and recreation in Prince George’s County. Go to www.2010Beyond.com for more information.
