EXPLORING YEAR ROUND HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Due to long, cold winters and limited options, residents of Cache Valley have demonstrated an interest in creating indoor spaces to support health and wellness. This study focuses primarily on exploring specific interests of those in Southern Cache County. Several communities invested in addressing the needs of their residents are participating. Our objective is to evaluate local needs and preferences while identifying challenges and opportunities to create a well-rounded vision for a potential indoor recreation and wellness facility.
Community
Engagement
Our project team is dedicated to actively engaging with the community to gather valuable insights and feedback. We believe that involving the residents in the process is crucial in creating a facility plan that truly meets recreation, health and wellness needs. The team is also committed to creating a viable operational plan that is sustainable and within budgetary restraints.
Project Scope
Creating a community space for recreation and gathering is more complicated than you might think, especially if you want to get it right. Some of the most challenging questions are facility size, location, and management. Another critical question is what amenities to include in the building that provide the greatest community benefit. Finally, an operational analysis and funding model need to be created
Enhancing Community Well-being
Collaboration & Cooperation
Our approach to creating a community recreation center involves exploring community partnerships with both public and private organizations. In addition to exploring the interests of Cache County residents, we are talking with schools, health and medical organizations and providers, sports leagues, and businesses interested in being a part of this project. Initially, we are gathering information and understanding interests, next we will explore mutually beneficial concepts that may include the creation of a recreation and wellness campus. To share your thoughts as a Cache Valley resident, athletic or recreation program provider, or business please complete one of several custom surveys:
Community-Centric Approach
While we are exploring every collaborative possibility presented, we are committed to a community-centric approach to creating a recreation space that fosters social connections and overall well-being.
