I know as a teen living in kilcunda there is near nothing to do in the cooler parts of the year! This skate park would give other kids/teens the opportunity to get out of the house and get to know who is living in this beautiful town!

The building of a Skate Park in Kilcunda is essential to provide recreational activities to residents and visitors alike and form a central part of an activities area within Kilcunda. It will be highly visible for security and to promote usage and form an integral part of the Kilcunda Community's annual fundraising festival - The Lobster Festival - held every January. Kilcunda currently has no activity based facilities for the youth and this will create a central focus ensuring daily use through the entire year and as a site for competitions and training for this growing sport.
The Kilcunda community is a small coastal town of around 300 people who have no physical assets within the town for younger residents to meet and build community whilst participating in a sport they love. They have to either be driven by parents to surrounding towns for sport & recreation activities or use limited public transport. Skating is a very popular activity in Kilcunda with some homeowners resorting to building small ramps in their backyards. A new skatepark on the foreshore would enable a safe location for an ever increasing number of children to come together and build community.
