What is the Mobile Skate Park Program? The Township of Tiny’s Recreation Staff were successful in receiving funding from Ontario Trillium Foundation to enhance youth programs in the municipality. Funding has been used to hire season staff and for the purchase of a mobile skate park for use in a number of communities. With this program we aim to increase youth participation in sport and recreation programs.
