The Braidwood community is announcing the launch of its new skatepark. Respect Park is an inclusive community space that seeks to put Braidwood on the action sports map.

30 years of advocacy for the Braidwood Skatepark has finally paid off!

The community of Braidwood was impacted by the Black Summer Bushfire events of 2019-2020. Braidwood Youth Performing Arts Association received funding through the Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Fund, co-funded by the Australian and NSW governments to build this much-needed facility for young people of the district and other skaters.

Beyond the boost during the construction phase itself, the new skatepark will strengthen Braidwood’s economy by attracting skate tourists from far and wide.

Additional funding came from Veolia Mulwaree Trust and project management support from Queanbeyan Palerang Regional Council (QPRC). The unique and exciting park was built by Grind Projects, and it now forms the heart of a new family recreation venue with barbeque and drinking fountains to enhance the Braidwood Recreation Ground’s amenities.

The project was delivered by the Braidwood Youth Performing Arts Association and the Braidwood Community Association with extensive support from Revoked Mob Australia and included a great deal of financial and volunteer contributions from the Braidwood community.

Community funding from – Braidwood Quilters, Braidwood Lions Club, Braidwood Community Bank, Braidwood Uniting, Red Cross, and everyone who bought a raffle ticket.

On behalf of the community and all partners, we are proud to announce the opening of Respect Park, the Braidwood Skatepark!

Join the international skateboard community on Saturday 25 February 2023 to celebrate the opening of the new facility.

Event Date: Saturday 25 February 2023
Event Times: Activities from 10:30 am, Official Opening at 1:30 pm
