| Park Use |
Every Time a park facility is reserved, the user fills out a request form which asks, among other things, the number of people participating in the scheduled event. That information is compiled in the department's monthly reports, available below.. |
|
|
Scheduled users for the fiscal year July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009, totalled 384.222. This number does not include casual users or users in those parks where the department does not take reservations: Harkers Island, Marshallberg, Radio Island, Salter Path, Straits, and West Beaufort. |
