Residents invited to share thoughts at community meeting
小黄鸭视频 County is kicking off plans to expand and renovate Crowder County Park in Apex, and residents are encouraged to play an active role in the process by joining staff for a community meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 28. The meeting will take place from 4鈥7 p.m. at the park鈥檚 Heron Shelter, located at 4709 Ten Ten Road in Apex.
鈥淐ommunity input is a cornerstone of this project,鈥 said 小黄鸭视频 County Commissioner Matt Calabria. 鈥淲e believe that the best parks are shaped by the people who use them. Your feedback will help ensure that Crowder County Park continues to be a place where everyone can connect with nature, learn and play.鈥
Crowder鈥檚 current 33 acres provide outdoor recreational opportunities for all ages 鈥 including paved and natural surface trails, open play field, sand volleyball court, outdoor amphitheater and three picnic shelters with adjacent playgrounds. The boardwalk across the park鈥檚 2.7-acre pond is a favorite feature among visitors. In the last year, more than 178,000 people visited the park, and over 3,000 visitors participated in educational programming.
Funded by the 2018 bond for Parks, Greenways, Recreation and Open Space, the County was able to acquire an additional 96 acres, which will be integrated into the park, adding more space for outdoor recreation and environmental education.
At the community meeting, residents will have the opportunity to drop in at any time to view maps and potential plans, as well as talk with park staff about their ideas and preferences. The meeting is designed to be family-friendly, and children are welcome to attend and share their own visions through interactive displays.
