The newly-completed Lucindale Skate Park was officially opened on Thursday 5 May by Member for Barker Tony Pasin MP.

This project was made possible by the Federal Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program and Naracoorte Lucindale Council, in partnership with the Centenary Park Working Group and Lucindale Area School.

Member for Barker Tony Pasin said the Federal Government contributed $185,000 to this important project for the Lucindale community.

“It’s fantastic to see the completion of the new skate park for the local community and visitors to enjoy.” Mr Pasin said.

“I am so pleased that Federal Government funding can support worthwhile projects like the Lucindale Skate Park for the Naracoorte Lucindale Council region,” Mr Pasin said.

“I know how important these developments and upgrades are for local communities because I recognise the social and community benefits that come from increased activity.” Mr Pasin said.

Naracoorte Lucindale Council, Erka Vickery said, “Naracoorte Lucindale Council is delighted to officially open the upgraded Lucindale Skate Park in conjunction with the Federal Member for Barker Mr Tony Pasin MP,” said Mayor Erika Vickery OAM.

“The skate park upgrade was identified by the Lucindale community as part of the consultation and development of the Lucindale Masterplan and progressed with the assistance and advice of the Centenary Park Working Group and Lucindale Area School. It has already proven to be a popular attraction in the heart of the town.” said Mayor Erika Vickery OAM.

The Federal Government has approved funding of $2,902,235 towards Naracoorte Lucindale Council projects as part of the $2.5 billion Local Road and Community Infrastructure Program, which is supporting local jobs, businesses and boosting the economy.
