We’re on the hunt for a new park name!

Clarington: we need your creativity.

We’re building a new neighbourhood park at 3301 Middle Road in Bowmanville – and it needs a name!

Set to open in late fall 2024, the new park will feature:

An accessible playground
Large shade structure
Splash pad
Softball diamond including a backstop, outfield fence, spectator seating and supporting amenities
Significant landscaping including tree planting and naturalized zones
Benches and seating
Paved walkways and a parking lot

Rendering of a play structure with slides, swings and climbing equipment

Rendering of chilren playing in the splashpad at the yet to be named park.

Our park naming policies dictate that new parks should be named after the streets they’re located on, a previous historical attribute or an existing natural feature. We’ve come up with three ideas that we invite you to rank from most to least favourite – or submit your own idea!

Head to www.clarington.net/NameYourPark to get involved. Clarington staff will evaluate the submissions and the best ideas will be presented to Council, who will make the final decision in September 2024.

Stay tuned for the name reveal and further details about a grand opening event coming later this fall!
