About the Trail SK8 Park

Trail Skate Park

The Trail SK8 Park broke ground on Monday, July 23, 2018.

New Line Skateparks, a Langley BC-based provider of large-scale municipal skatepark construction services, completed construction on Monday, October 22, 2018.

In the spring of 2017, CBT provided $150,000 of Recreation Infrastructure grant funding, and City Council committed $445,000 to complete the project in 2018.

Additional fundraising comes from the Society for the Friends of the Trail Skatepark of $80,000 in cash contributions and $8,500 of in-kind services, and a donation of $30,000 USD from the Murphy Family Foundation.

Donors who made a contribution of $100 or more are recognized on bronze plaques that have been installed at the SK8 Park site.
