What’s Your Vision for Park City’s Future?
From Park City Municipal:
We’d like to hear from you, Park City! Take the Park City Vision 2020 community survey and apply to participate in July’s Think Tank Workshops

Park City has launched Park City Vision 2020 – a community visioning project asking residents and business owners to share their perspectives on:

  • What makes Park City the place that people wish to call home?
  • What makes Park City special and what should Park City become?
  • What are the elements of the community that, if lost, would fundamentally change the character of Park City?

Park City Vision 2020 will be a 6-month community visioning project to define a Park City Community Vision and Action Plan, as a follow up to the 2009 Park City Community Visioning project.

There will be several opportunities to get involved throughout the visioning process now through October.

For more information, contact linda.jager@parkcity.org or 435.615.5189.

Park City Event Guide: June 14 – 20

People often think of Park City as a winter playground. Having the “greatest snow on earth” will do that to a reputation. But our two world-class resorts don’t just become ghost towns during the summer months! This week, Canyons Village at Park City Mountain Resort opens, with a ton to do for adventurers of any age and sensibility, from serene scenic lift rides to mountain biking trails that will have you gritting your teeth and praying to make it down to the bottom of the mountain in one piece.
