NRPA Park Pulse

Each month, through a poll of Americans that is focused on park and recreation issues, NRPA Park Pulse will help to tell the park
and recreation story. Questions span from the serious to the more lighthearted, and with this month's poll, we take a closer look at
attitudes surrounding the importance of healthy food and drink options being included in vending machines and offered at concession stands in public spaces.

Americans Want Healthier
Food and Drink Options
A Park Pulse poll conducted by the National Recreation and Park Association asked
1,017 Americans ages 18+ how important it is to them that vending machines and
concession stands in public spaces include healthy food and drink options.

NRPA encourages public venues (e.g., public parks and recreation centers)
to add healthy food and drink options at vending machines and concession stands.

Based upon a survey conducted for the National Recreation and Park Association by Wakefield Research
among 1,017 nationally representative Americans, ages 18+, between June 16th and June 23rd, 2016,
using an email invitation and an online survey. Quotas have been set to ensure reliable and accurate
representation of the U.S. adult population ages 18+. Results of any sample are subject to sampling
variation. The magnitude of the variation is measurable and is affected by the number of interviews and
the level of the percentages expressing the results. For the interviews conducted in this particular study,
the chances are 95 in 100 that a survey result does not vary, plus or minus, by more than 3.1 percentage
points from the result that would be obtained if interviews had been conducted with all persons in the
universe represented by the sample. All decimals are rounded to the nearest percentage point. This may
result in certain numerical totals adding up to slightly more or less than 100%.
