About The Park

Phase 1

Phase 1 of the Warkworth Skatepark Project (click on image to enlarge) plans to use the smooth concrete floor of the Warkworth Arena (rather than the rough surface of the asphalt parking lot) to act as a foundation for stand-alone moveable components (1/2 pipe, 1/4 pipe, grind rail, fun box, etc...).

A local forklift would be required to move these components. Use of the canteen, washrooms, lighting, etc would be an asset. Staffing arrangements, rules, regulations, etc. to be arranged through Scott Rose, Trent Hills Community Services' Officer. This phase would accommodate an immediate temporary facility for our youth while waiting for Phase 2 to be realized. The pieces of equipment in this phase will be incorporated into the design of Phase 2.

Phase 2

Phase 2, approximately 120' by 100' in size, would be a stand-alone concrete park. At the time of this proposal writing, there are about 4 possible locations with one of them showing more interest, that being on Percy Agricultural Society property near the arena. This property contains a picnic shelter and canteen already in place. It is hoped that the washrooms of the arena would still be available to be used until such time as outside washrooms many become available.
