The Recreation & Parks Master Plan is a strategic guide that will shape the future of Tofino's recreation and parks services over the next ten years.

Tofino offers a wide range of recreational, parks, and leisure activities for organized and unstructured indoor and outdoor activities, suitable for people of all ages. The plan will be created in consultation with the community, incorporating various research and engagement methods, including:

  • Insight and input from the Recreation Advisory Committee (RAC)

  • Surveys (resident, youth and facility/amenity user group)

  • An interactive Virtual Mapping tool

  • Discussion sessions with community organizations & stakeholders

  • Analysis of current programming and facility operations

  • Population and demographic analysis

  • Recreation and leisure trends (including arts, culture and heritage)

  • Benchmarking (comparison to other communities)

Community Involvement

The District of Tofino is committed to involving the entire community in developing this plan. There are three points of community engagement throughout the project as per the anticipated timeline. This fall, the first point of engagement is focused on understanding community needs (both present and future) and the current situation (such as barriers and opportunities to enhance access and inclusion). This includes these specific elements:

  • Current uses of recreation and parks facilities and spaces

  • Current barriers and challenges related to participating in recreation

  • Needs and expectations, now and into the future, including facility and programming gaps and investment priorities

  • Values related to service provision (i.e., what’s important when it comes to the delivery of recreation services)

  • Opportunities to advance access and inclusion

Stay Updated

This page will be regularly updated with:

  • New information about the Master Plan
  • Details on upcoming community engagement activities
  • Key milestones in the plan’s development

Stay connected, join the discussion, and help shape the future of recreation and parks in Tofino.
