Park & Recreation Ballot Measure Surveys

Measure Support & Tell Your Story Why Funding is Needed

Magellan Strategies conducts ballot measure surveys that accurately measure voter support and opposition for park and recreation district funding proposals. We survey likely voters within the district and test different funding amounts, ballot language, and messaging to identify which approach resonates most with the community. Our team and community engagement partners have decades of experience managing ballot measure campaigns—we are your trusted research partner to help your recreation district be in the best position to achieve voter approval for your ballot measure.

In addition to measuring support, our ballot measure surveys educate and inform voters about why their park and recreation district is considering a ballot measure—clearly explaining how the new revenue would be used, whether to improve recreation facilities, increase staff salaries, or expand services and amenities.

Park & Recreation Programming & Amenity Preference Surveys

Magellan Strategies manages professional park and recreation surveys to help our clients understand which recreation programs their communities prefer. Our surveys also engage residents who are unaware of the programs and amenities offered by their local recreation district. By engaging these residents and informing them of the services provided, our surveys help increase recreation activity participation and grow the district’s “customer” base. Residents who are familiar with their local district’s recreation programming also rate the organization’s overall image and job approval more highly.
