Is it spring yet?! All we need is the snow to melt, and the warm days of Spring to return so we can finish the last little bit of work remaining on the Flint Park Pump Track.
We know the community is very excited for this project to be completed, and we appreciate everyone’s support so far. With just a small amount of work remaining we hope to have everyone riding before Summer! Here is what’s new since the last update:
Fundraising Opportunity
Show your support for the Flint Park Pump track, and get your name featured at the site for years to come!
The Pump Track project so far has been funded with Community Association funds and the generous support of The Parks Foundation Calgary, along with donations from corporate sponsors. Fairview Community Association is now giving residents and friends of the Community the chance to donate to help see this project over the finish line. Any funds raised will be used to ensure the track gets completed without any speed bumps or delays and looks and rides great for decades to come.
