A method to mass distribute accurate and up-to-date information in a reliable, user-friendly method would be beneficial to the success and participation of recreation programming. The Ramsey Resident has been a primary source of information to residents, alongside the City's website. A recent addition to the toolbox of communications has been the utilization of social media and new technology. All of the above have their contributions and limitations. The Ramsey Resident is a city newsletter distributed bi-monthly to every home in Ramsey. It delivers information on community - related announcements. Although it has broad reach to residents, it may not provide the level of detail on services that the website can, and does not allow for registration. While readers are encouraged to visit the Parks and Recreation Events page for more information, it cannot be guaranteed all opportunities reach them. The city website acts as a central hub for pertinent information for residents. Navigating to find information on the website requires the user to seek out the information they are looking for rather than delivering it directly to their mailbox. Hosting a formal city website may require additional resources from staff to ensure we are presenting timely content in a way that is easy to navigate.
