Imagine a state-of-the-art sports complex designed to meet the growing needs of Flagler County and Palm Coast. A place where athletes of all ages and skill levels can train and compete, where families can gather for tournaments and events, and where sports tourism can help fuel economic growth.
Local officials are exploring the potential for a large-scale sports complex, which could include indoor and outdoor facilities for various sports, retail and dining options, sports medicine, and opportunities to attract high-level competitions and training programs. While the vision is still in its early stages, Flagler County and the City of Palm Coast invite the community to help shape the discussion at an upcoming workshop.
Residents are encouraged to attend and share their thoughts on what this type of facility should offer and how it could benefit the community. The workshop will be held at 1 p.m. April 7 at the Flagler County Government Services Building, 1769 E. Moody Boulevard, Bunnell.
“This is about planning for the future,” said County Administrator Heidi Petito. “As our community grows, so does the demand for quality recreational spaces. We want to hear from our residents about what they envision for this type of project.”
