Reimagine Western Kangaroo Island Parks and Seal Bay Visitor Experience Survey
ProManage has been engaged by the Department for Environment and Water to involve community and stakeholders on the journey to rebuild and renew Kangaroo Island’s visitor experiences in parks.
We are gathering your feedback to develop a vision, key themes, guiding principles, opportunities summary and design brief for the connected parks and wilderness areas at the Western end of Kangaroo Island. This will help inform the development of a Tourism Master Plan and an updated Park Management Plan for the western KI Parks.
We invite you to provide your feedback via our online survey at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/reimagine-ki-parks
