Survey seeks ideas on amenities needed at Apache Junction Rodeo Grounds

Posted

After maintaining and operating the Apache Junction Rodeo Grounds for the last 37 years, the city has purchased 20 acres from the Bureau of Land Management for $1.4 million and is seeking public input on what amenities to add.

The Apache Junction Parks and Recreation Department, working with current rodeo event center user groups, has identified key amenities to enhance and increase events and activities in the Apache Junction area. Future improvements will be prioritized based on need and available funding, according to a release.

The city of Apache Junction is seeking feedback from the public on the first draft of the design at apachejunctionaz.gov/1127/Rodeo-Event-Center-Updates.

Survey questions include:

  • How often do you attend events/activities at the rodeo grounds facility?
  • What events have you attended at the rodeo grounds?
  • What type of activities have you attended at the rodeo grounds?
  • Check the types of activities and events you or others in your family would be interested in attending that may cost a fee to enter or participate: concerts, craft/artisan vendor fair, rodeos, bull riding events/activities, other equestrian events and activities, beer/wine/craft festivals, archery related activities, ATVsafety/education, open arena times for individual equestrian exercise.
  • What do you want to make sure is included in the master plan concept?
