Communications & Engagement

The Communications & Engagement Department is responsible for communications, activities, programs, and events that enhance Frederick's quality of life and sense of community. Let’s explore how to stay connected, get involved, and be engaged with your community. 

How To Stay Up To Date

• The National Community Survey 2025: The Town of Frederick invited residents to participate in a community satisfaction survey during the summer of 2025. A total of 3,000 randomly selected households received mailed invitations, and 370 residents responded between June 16 and July 28. An additional 231 residents participated through the open online survey. The results were presented to the Board of Trustees in September and will help guide strategic plan updates, departmental priorities, and future policy discussions. Survey results are now available—see what your neighbors had to say.
• Event Survey: Have you attended one of our community events - Community Tour & Talk, Frederick In Flight, Chainsaws & Chuckwagons, Miners Day, Tiny Terror Town, or Festival of Lights? We'd love your feedback on how to enhance the quality of Town events. 
• Go Outdoors Frederick 2050: The Town has initiated "Go Outdoors Frederick 2050," a 25-year system master plan focusing on sustainably and responsibly maintaining, improving, and growing the Town's outdoor recreational assets, including parks, open spaces, public landscapes, trails, and Bella Rosa Golf Course. A system master plan is a comprehensive process that investigates, engages the community, and creates an implementation plan for the long-term future of the town's recreational assets. This planning effort began in 2024 and will be completed by the end of 2025. Visit the project website to learn more and add your comments!
