This collaborative project between the Town of Penhold and The Penhold & District Optimist Club opened in the fall of 2021. The opening of the Multi-Use All-Wheel Mark (MAP) saw a modified version of the long anticipated skatepark become a reality along with a pump track feature to create a Multi-Use All-Wheel Park (MAP) south of the Penhold Regional Multiplex.

What is a pump track?

It’s a closed loop track with rolling bumps, banked corners and berms (swoopy, banked turns) for biking, rollerblading and scooters. They are designed to maximize momentum so users can ride the pump track with minimal exertion. Pump tracks are a perfect structure for practising balance, learning skills and improving confidence. 

The skatepark portion of the Penhold MAP will include seven (7) features:

  • bank ramp
  • slappy rail
  • manual pad
  • flat rail
  • flat ledge
  • quarter pipe extension
  • quarter pipe transition

The Soccer pitch is located south of the Multiplex – #1 Waskasoo Avenue.

Mostly used by Children’s sports programs, this spacious field offers opportunities to play a wide range of field sports. Rental cost for the Town of Penhold soccer pitch is $30 per game. Weekend rental rate is $120 per day.

If anyone is interested in booking the soccer pitch, please contact us 403-886-3260.

The Penhold Athletic Park is the only Town-owned ball diamond. During the summer months it is used by adult groups and children’s sports programs.
