East Fremantle Community Park was officially opened by the Honourable Roger Cook MLA, Premier of Western Australia during a colourful community celebration on Saturday afternoon.
A plaque unveiling ceremony was also attended by the Honourable David Templeman MLA, Minister for Culture and Arts, Sport and Recreation, Heritage and International Education; Lisa O’Malley, and Simone McGurk plus Elected Members, past and former staff and representatives from the wide range of organisations, sporting and community groups who helped bring this key community asset to life.
The East Fremantle Community Park was a once-in-a-generation development that has been a key capital works project in the Town’s Strategic Community Plan.
An underlying principle of the East Fremantle Community Park is that it is a community facility for all – an integrated and financially sustainable precinct where sports, leisure, cultural events and recreation thrive together, for the use of all residents and visitors to the Town.
Over 1,500 people enjoyed the balmy summer evening and festivities including live music by Almost Acoustic, free kids’ activities, a look at the East Freo Playgroup, bowls, croquet and football games with the EFFC, and food trucks.
Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with us.
