Survey opens for future of David Crockett Birthplace State Park
GREENE COUNTY, Tenn. (WJHL) — Tennessee State Parks officials are asking the public to help shape the future of the David Crockett Birthplace State Park.
'We want Tennesseans to tell us what they would like to see in the rebirth of David Crockett Birthplace, a beloved state park that holds many memories of the beautiful Tennessee outdoors and is a treasured historical site,' Greer Tidwell, deputy commissioner of Conservation at the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, said in a news release. 'We need visitor feedback on how to best honor the legacy of David Crockett and the park that bears his name.'
The online survey will help inform park leadership on the future of the park.
According to the release, a master plan for the park has started and the survey is a key step in the process.
The survey is open until May 18.
The park, which was devastated by Hurricane Helene, has been temporarily closed since September 2024.
