Community Engagement Opportunities To Shape Recreation Opportunities In Chattanooga

  • Thursday, May 29, 2025

The City of Chattanooga announces a series of community engagement events as part of the development of its Comprehensive Recreation Program Plan. These events provide an important opportunity for residents of all ages to share their ideas, priorities, and aspirations for recreation across our city.

Officials said, "Public input is essential as the City strives to create recreational spaces and programs that are fun, accessible, and inclusive for all. Whether you’re passionate about neighborhood parks, youth sports, fitness classes, trails, or open green spaces, your voice will help shape the future of Chattanooga’s recreation system."
