The Town of Amherstburg will be celebrating two new outdoor amenities on Saturday: the Skate Park and Bike Trail.

The Skate Park was a Council-approved amenity in the 2022 budget. The Bike Trail was achieved through a unique land stewardship agreement with Windsor Essex Bike Community, approved by Council in February 2023.

The Skate Park, designed with precision and safety in mind, promises to be a hub of excitement for skateboarders, inline skaters, and BMX enthusiasts. Constructed to international standards, this state-of-the art amenity will provide an exhilarating space for locals to showcase their skills, foster camaraderie, and inspire the next generation of extreme sports athletes.

“We are thrilled to unveil the Skate Park and Bike Trail as part of the Libro Centre Celebration Day. These new outdoor amenities represent our commitment to providing diverse and engaging recreational opportunities for our residents. They will contribute to a healthier, more active community while fostering a sense of pride and unity. We are excited to see how these facilities will be enjoyed by individuals and families alike,” said Heidi Baillargeon, Director of Parks, Recreation, Facilities & Culture.

The day starts at 9:00am.
