We value your opinion and hope you're as excited as we are about the re-opening!

As part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing the community's recreational spaces, we invite you to participate in this evaluation survey focused on the recent upgrades made to the St. Leonards Skate Park.

Your feedback is invaluable in helping us understand the impact of these improvements, and how they have influenced your experience at the skate park.

Whether you're an avid skateboarder, BMX enthusiast, scooter rider, inline skater or simply enjoy watching the vibrant energy of the skate park, we want to hear from you.

Once you've had a chance to try the new features out we'd appreciate if you could take a few minutes to share your thoughts below, so we can continue shaping our skate parks into a thrilling and safe environment for all to enjoy.

Hard copies of the survey are available by contacting the person listed in the 'Contact Us' section of this page.

Key features of the completed St Leonards Skate Park upgrade include:

• new skate area featuring a mini-ramp, quarter pipes, flat banks, rails, and a manual pad
• plaza and park features
• new shelter and seating areas
• ENE Hub smart pole and
• drinking fountain

The project's first stage, finalised in February 2023, involved the demolition of the existing skate park and the completion of the multi-sport court with two basketball/futsal goals and two netball rings.

The concept design for stage two was developed collaboratively with the local community, including skateboard enthusiasts.

The $670,000 upgrade became a reality through a $310,000 investment from the City of Greater Geelong and $360,000 from the Victorian Government’s Community Sports Infrastructure Stimulus Program.

Community Feedback

During December 2020 and January 2021 we provided the draft concept plan for community consultation.

The community was able to provide feedback in a number of ways:

• A quick poll below to tell us if you liked the concept or not;
• A survey to tell us what is important to you and provide general feedback;
• Adding comments and ideas directly onto features of the concept plan and seeing what others said using the 'Social Map' tool.

The feedback was very positive and has enabled us to progress the project.
