Abstract
The purpose of this project was to examine the outdoor recreation opportunities offered by a local community recreational program, the Blacksburg Parks and Recreation Department, which is managed by the Town of Blacksburg. The author compares the number of outdoor facilities available to the public to the number of facilities the Commission of Outdoor Recreation has projected that the area needs. This comparison should help determine the strengths and weaknesses of the local recreation department. A discussion section follows the comparison to help determine the reasons for the shortages of facilities in certain areas.
