Overview - Project Purpose
Over the years, the recreation demands have grown in Stowe and various uses and facilities have been proposed for Memorial Park to meet these demands.  The Town of Stowe Selectboard decided to develop a Master Plan for Memorial Park with the help of a consultant to determine which uses and facilities are most appropriate. The Selectboard organized a Project Advisory Committee made up of representatives of various Town groups and commissions.  The Project Advisory Committee (PAC) assisted the consultant by providing their ideas and feedback.  The Town hired Broadreach Planning & Design to undertake the development of the Memorial Park Master Plan.  The vision of a dynamic, comprehensive, year-round, multi-use, well planned and designed recreation complex in Memorial Park is part of the larger Town vision for the Stowe Village.

As part of the development of the Master Plan, BRoadreach Planning & Design (BRPD) also explored three specific areas of Town concern:

• What is the future of Jackson Arena, a covered , unheated ice rink that operates in the winter months?
• Is it appropriate to add a new skateboard facility to the Park?
• What should the future of the David Gale Recreation Center in the Park be
