Park Census 2018: Park Census 2018 data collection update

The Park Census Office (PCO) is happy to announce that the final months of data collection for the 2018 Census (36 AZ) have begun.

The information collected in the new census during the first nine months of 2018 will reflect the changes in The Park's population over the past decade, including species-identification, physical, mental, and economic well-being, family size, and participation in Park life. The data collected will serve to benefit lives in The Park for years to come.

The Park Census Office wishes to thank all those who have given their time and energy to ensuring a bright and informed future for The Park.

We encourage all those who have not yet participated to do so before 30 September 2018. To that end, we will be staffing booths at weekly #StereotypeSundays and at other locations throughout The Park during July and August. Please watch this space for new announcements regarding venues.
