Strategic Planning: You’re invited!
Take the survey!
Please share your views, experiences, ideas, and concerns to help the GVR Board develop a new five-year strategic plan.
Click HERE to take the survey before 4pm on Friday, June 26. (You will need your GVR number to verify membership.)
Green Valley Recreation provides a truly impressive menu of recreation options at an equally impressive value. GVR manages the challenge by maintaining a sharp focus on goals and initiatives identified in a five-year strategic plan. The current strategic plan will expire at the end of this year, so it is once again time for members to help the Board of Directors decide to hold the course or set a new one.
Your participation is key!
Members, if GVR is doing its job, most of you are happily enjoying hobbies, sports, games, art pursuits, classes, and social time. Behind the scenes, keeping fifteen recreation facilities operational and offering fresh programs takes a great deal of intention and focus. With requests from 23,000+ members and many community organizations continuously coming in, focus is essential to success. Strategic plans provide that focus.
The 2022–2026 strategic plan wraps up at the end of this year. Zelos LLC, the consulting firm that helped GVR develop the current plan, is once again on the job, helping the Board and staff collect information and identify goals to pursue over the next five years.
Please pass the word among your member friends about the survey. A robust response will help ensure that the Board and staff focus on providing the GVR you are all here for.
