Mill Woods Sport Park History
The Mill Woods Sports Park was initially designed in 1982 as a District Activity Park to accommodate various active recreational opportunities for the surrounding community.
Significant changes have been made to the original plan during construction of the park, and it has been developed in increments. Landscaping of the site was completed with the original sports field development and there are many mature trees on site. The east side is heavily treed, while the west and central portion of the site is sparsely planted.
