Help Shape Raleigh Parks!

Over the past few months, we have heard from the people of Raleigh loud and clear!

The parks, greenways, nature preserves, and facilities that make up Raleigh's park system are not just "nice to have"... they are essential to our quality of life.

The Raleigh Parks Plan is a community-based project that sets a vision for the parks & recreation system of tomorrow. Your input will help us shape our top priorities over the next 3-5 years, as we work to make Raleigh's park system one of the greatest in the country.
