Dreamland Skateparks has been hired by the City to design a 5,000sf expansion of the 5th Street Skatepark, with funding from the City's Parks Impact Fee Fund and Resort Tax Fund. The City has collected public input through an online survey and two community meetings, in August and November, 2024. Dreamland Skateparks submitted 60% design plans and updated concept images on December 24th. Comments and questions can be emailed to DSelf@DriggsIdaho.org.

A 90% completion drawing set was received in February, 2025, and presented to and approved by the Parks Committee on February 19th. The design and budget will be presented to the City Council on March 18th for approval. Construction is planned for summer of 2025. The majority of the current skatepark will remain open during construction.

In August of 2024, the City initiated a master planning process to determine how to best use the 101-acre property purchased along the south side of Bates Rd west of downtown. Over the next five months, an online survey, public open house, and online comment forum, as well as a design charrette produced the preliminary list of uses and elements designed for the Park. City staff, officials, stakeholders, and the public, came together to create a master plan that represents the desires of the community, includes recreation and open space, protecting wildlife and their habitat, and provides needed space to meet important public service needs, such as a new fire station and a location for downtown snow storage. Because of the presence of Woods Creek, the City has begun referring to the project as Woods Creek Park.

The Final Woods Creek Master Plan Report (see also the larger scale graphics ) will be presented to the City Council on March 18th for adoption. Initial improvement projects will be considered this spring and summer during preparation of the 2026 budget.

The City of Driggs has partnered with Teton Valley Aquatics to complete a feasibility study and a concept design for an aquatic and indoor recreation center, which was identified as a top priority for new recreation facilities in the 2014 Teton County Recreation and Public Access Master Plan . Teton Valley Aquatics is currently working with private partners on securing a major portion of construction funding for the project, with the goal of beginning some site improvements in 2026.

The City of Driggs plans to construct improvements to Valley Centre Park in summer of 2025. The project budget is $185,000-$200,000, with the majority of funding provided by the new Moraine Square townhome development. The proposed improvement plans will be posted here in spring of 2025 and emailed out to the Buffalo Junction HOA for comments.

The revised plans will be posted here and emailed out to the Shoshoni Plains HOA for comments. The project is expected to be constructed in the summer of 2025.
