Thursday, September 26, 2024 – Further enhancements are coming to Ravens Ridge Park, marking progress toward creating an inviting, multi-purpose space for the community!
Phase 2 of the Ravens Ridge Park enhancements is underway with anticipated completion in Spring 2025. This phase will include the commissioning of a new Multisport Games Area (MUGA) and significant landscape upgrades.
The multisport games area will feature low-profile fences, built-in shock and sound absorption, and a natural aesthetic. The new 18m x 32m fenced court will include basketball nets above soccer goals, with the flexibility to accommodate other games and activities. This court will provide a versatile space for sports and recreational activities, meeting the growing demands of the community.
In addition to the games area, the landscape upgrades will feature a raised sitting area with bleachers and picnic tables beside the sports box, accessibility improvements, and FireSmart landscaping that includes the planting of 50 new trees. These updates are designed to enhance the park’s functionality and aesthetics while prioritizing the safety and enjoyment of visitors.
The funding for this project is made possible through a combination of the Canada Infrastructure Program – Community, Culture, and Recreation Program grant and Playground Field Reserve Funds, established from a Sunriver Estates contribution.
“As we move forward with Ravens Ridge Park enhancements, we are focused on creating spaces that inspire active, healthy lifestyles while fostering community connections,” said Mayor Maja Tait. “These improvements are part of a broader effort to respond to the growing needs of Sooke’s residents and enhance the overall quality of life in our community.”
