The City of Concord Parks and Recreation Department is seeking community feedback on the creation of a master plan for W.W. Flowe Park. 

Located in the southern portion of Concord, W.W. Flowe Park is a 44-acre community park that includes a four-field baseball complex with press box and concessions, playground area, a large, undeveloped multi-use field, volleyball courts, several small shelters, and a walking trail system. While the park has been programmed and operated by the City for several years, Cabarrus County formally conveyed ownership of the park to the City in 2021. With the community’s input, the City is now looking to create a fresh vision for the park. 

The City is seeking input from the community and which facilities and amenities to preserve and/or renovate, what new features to include in the park, and what priorities the City should consider for funding over the next 5-10 years.

The conceptual plan above shows a few suggested additions to the park for context of what COULD be done to improve the overall experience at W.W. Flowe, but is for illustrative purposes at this point pending public feedback.  It suggests additions of:

• pickleball courts
• small and large dog parks
• new playground
• new soccer/multi-use field
• additional parking
• added trails and connectivity
• expansion of one baseball diamond
• new buildings and shelters, and
• new shade canopies at the existing pressbox building. 

The City invites the public to participate in the online survey and answer the questions below to help refine the park master plan and set the vision for the future W.W. Flowe Park.
