About the Project

The Municipality of Middlesex Centre has recently assumed land in Ilderton for the new Timberwalk Lions Park. It is located on Timberwalk Close, near the corner with Songbird Lane.

As part of Middlesex Centre's capital budget, a new playground will be installed in the park. Construction started in October 2024, with an estimated project completion date of May 31, 2025 (subject to weather and material availability).

You can find drawings of the new play structures and photos the park at bottom of this page. 

Funding

Funding for this project is provided through Middlesex Centre’s Development Charges Reserve Fund. The Ilderton & District Lions Club are generously donating towards the cost of the new play structures.
