Mobile - Township of Tiny

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.

provide supervised opportunities for local
children and youth to practice tricks and

When it rains, the skate park (ramps and concrete)
becomes very slippery and is not safe for use. As a
result, skate park sessions will be cancelled. The
mobile skate park will be closed until park attendants
determine the facility safe for use.
