Mild weather returns this week, snow possible by Friday

The Bend area is set to enjoy milder weather this week, with temperatures expected to rise after a cold spell. However, forecasts warn of potential snowfall by Friday, prompting residents to stay vigilant. This shift in weather patterns could impact outdoor activities and local events significantly. In a related initiative, the Bend Park and Recreation District is launching a community survey aimed at understanding residents' preferences for organized recreational programs. The survey will be mailed to 5,000 households and seeks to gather insights on current usage and desired services.

By analyzing this feedback, the district aims to prioritize community needs and enhance recreational offerings. Additionally, an online survey will be available for broader community input in mid-February. These efforts reflect a commitment to aligning district services with the evolving desires of Bend residents.
