Have your say on the Redlynch Skatepark

COUNCIL is seeking public feedback on what they would like to see at the Redlynch Skatepark.

The skatepark is due to be refurbished and as part of the process Council is asking the community for feedback to inform the renewal of the facility.

Division 6 Councillor Kristy Vallely said she was happy to see this project progressing.

“This is a project that is very important to me and for the community,” Cr Vallely said.

“It is a very popular facility that is well used by children and families, and it’s great to see that it’s going to get a refurbishment.

“The skatepark was due for a refurbishment, so we thought we’d take the opportunity to give it a lift during that process.

ity and if there is anything they’d like to be incorporated into the refurbishment.

“We will take the information on board and use it to inform our future plans,” she said.

• Redlynch Skatepark today (February 3) from 3.30pm to 5.30pm, and on Saturday (February 4) from 3pm to 5pm,

“It’s really good for a regional area like Mareeba to have this level of training right here on the Tablelands, and I think people will really enjoy their morning here.”

Mr Don said young aviation fans would have fun checking out the planes and the simulator while getting the opportunity to learn more about flying.

The pilot training open day is on February 11 at the MAF Training Centre on 37 Vicary Road at the Mareeba Airport from 9am – 1pm. For more information, visit MAF Mareeba on Facebook or email mba.trainingcentre@mafint.org
