Public Meeting: Wilkinson Memorial Park
September 4 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
The County of Prince Edward is hosting the fourth and final meeting for a pathway plan and park design at Wilkinson Memorial Park on Thursday, September 4.
The meeting will take place from 9 am – 10 am at the North Marysburgh Town Hall (2699 County Road 8, Waupoos).
The municipality is working with VTLA Studio to develop a plan to improve the park. The public is welcome to attend the meeting, review the presentation by VTLA, and share their feedback.
The Wilkinson Memorial Park pathway plan and park design is 1 of 10 parkland projects across Prince Edward County supported by funds from the Parkland Reserve. Provincial legislation requires municipalities to spend a certain portion of funds in their Parkland Reserve. The funds in this reserve come from developers who provide cash instead of dedicating parkland to the municipality. Municipalities are required to spend those funds in the same geographic area as the development.
An initial consultation for Wilkinson Memorial Park identified the desire for an outdoor rink at the park. However, given the challenges of making ice during recent unpredictable winters, Council directed staff during the 2025 deliberations to use the $80,000 for park improvements instead.
The Wilkinson Memorial Park currently has a tennis and pickleball court with basketball hoops. There is a playground and band shelter. The park also has an old baseball diamond and a large green space with new trees that were planted a year ago. Also on the property is a canteen and shaded picnic area.
