​1% For Recreation

Our 1% for Recreation program started in 2007 as a way for local businesses to support the operation of the Bayfield Rec Center. 

Last year, local businesses raised over $36,000 by asking for just a few dollars.

How A Few Dollars Go A Long Way

From restaurants to gift shops and hotels, local businesses ask their patrons to pay an additional 1% on their bill as a donation to the program.

Though these donations are generally quite small individually (typically under a few dollars), they add up to a sizable amount - over $36,000 from 16 participating businesses last year.

These local businesses give back to the community!

The following businesses participate in the 1% for Recreation Program, which collected $36,000 last year. We encourage our members and participants to visit and support these businesses to say thank you for their dedication to the community.
