The Benefit of Recreation and Open Spaces to your Community- Are you Prepared if a Disaster Happens? Dr. Lori Pennington-Gray Professor & Director of the Tourism Crisis Management Institute

Why is this question important?

Three reasons why leisure should be considered an essential good: Social Importance

Economic Benefits Increased property taxes Attractor for new businesses Fees from programming Indirect fees from tourists who come for events

Health and Environmental Benefits Places to meet others for social reasons Places to get healthy Livable communities Future spaces Net positive impact on air quality, pollution, reduction in deforestation

Social Benefits Places to meet and hang out Places to meet for free Spillover benefits of nature
