Atkinson Park is a busy, vibrant recreational facility. A soccer field, outdoor swimming pool and skateboard park attract local youth. The outdoor pool is open from late June until Labour Day.
Friends of Atkinson, a volunteer non-profit group, has been working on a variety of events to fund improvements within the park, including the skateboard park. This group also supports swimming lessons for area children. For more information about the Friends of Atkinson, please contact Jane Sparrow at
