Parks Updates

Posted on: August 6, 2021

Park use has gone up lots this summer 65-90% and within Fort Rouge-East Fort Garry important new amenities have been built to support usage! 

They include:

Crescent Drive Park has a new playground which was built this month to accompany the new pavilion.  I am looking forward to the grand opening of this pavilion/ playground combo in the near future.

River Osborne recently received $5,000 from the Fort Rouge-East Fort Garry Land Dedication Reserve to fund a new set of baby swings.   They are installed and ready to be enjoyed by our littlest residents.

Byng Park's slide has recently been repaired by the City of Winnipeg Parks Department and is ready for use.  

There are more than 1,000 parks in Winnipeg to explore:
