Roanoke survey looks at future of Parks and Recreation
ROANOKE, Va. – Roanoke City leaders want you to reimagine recreation in the Star City from splash pads to Olympic-sized pools to more indoor recreation centers.
Roanoke City Parks and Recreation held meetings in the spring and now they’re sending out surveys - snail-mail style - to get the community’s feedback.
The department is hoping to get about $9 million dollars in capital improvement funding from the city over the next three years. They want to see how the community would like to spend that money. The survey asks which facilities people visit most often, what prevents them from going, and what improvements they’d like to see.

HAMPTON, N.H. – The STEM field is growing, creating tremendous opportunity for well-trained applicants. While STEM has traditionally been a male-dominated field, cultivating interest at the undergraduate level can help draw in more women who may have the necessary skills but have never considered STEM as a career path. In TBR’s monthly series Women in STEM, we discuss how female leaders have successfully pursued careers in STEM and are encouraging more female representation by passing on the lessons they’ve learned to other women who are pursuing this path.
