Chilhowee Park Advisory Group (CPAG)
East Knoxville citizens actively participate and collaborate with neighbors, partners, and city staff to build a vibrant city together. As the momentum of our growing city continues, the opportunity to combine efforts and outlooks has enabled a group of advocates to form the Chilhowee Park Advisory Group (CPAG) to help shape the future of Chilhowee Park
Invitations were sent to community members, partners, and stakeholders to join CPAG and become community advocates to help guide a new framework of Chilhowee Park's future mission, vision, and goals. Small group meetings and workshops allow members to participate in the discussion with a cross-section of perspectives at the table. The members are requested to share information, progress, and report feedback through their neighborhood and community organizations where they live, work, and play.
The goal of the group is to both challenge and build upon the analyses, discoveries, and input of the Chilhowee Park 2019 Strategic Plan; including planning efforts throughout East Knoxville and the Magnolia Avenue Corridor. Discussions and activities in the workshops will establish guiding objectives and create a vision plan that will preserve the park's history while planning the future of the park together.
