The path was completed in Lockwood Memorial Field and Park this week. Come out and enjoy a stroll – or a jog – on our new 1/4 mile path. Yes – for fitness buffs, 4 times around the path is 1 mile! Westport in Bloom will be placing a few of the heavy park benches beside the path so that you can take a break and enjoy the “green” in the middle of the Village. With the tennis court and shuffleboard fences removed and those surfaces replaced with grass, the park – well – it now looks like a park!
Next year, the cenotaph will be relocated inside the George St gates and we have applied for a grant that will allow us to build a playground near the firehall. No tax dollars have been used for the Lockwood Memorial Field and Park regeneration – grants and donations have and will continue to cover the costs. Many thanks to our generous donors and to the Village’s hard working staff .
We have just experienced another exceptional example of what it means to live in Westport. Where else does the best day in October land on the 31st? Where else do over 100 kids knock on the door for a trick or treat – and all do it wearing creative costumes…and with a joke or riddle? Where else is there an adult close by for every child? And, seriously, where else do so many people join the fun and turn their homes into haunted house?
Westport … our Village, our community. Thank you for another scary, busy Hallowe’en.
Westport’s arena online booking and PayPal payment system are now available on our website !! Thanks to staff for their hard work getting this up and running.
