Friends of Marina Park Support Mayor's Walk

Question: Why not build condos in other parks such as Boulevard Lake Park?

Answer: Parks are for People. Boulevard Lake Park is for people and for events like the Mayor’s Walk for Volunteerism. Likewise, Marina Park, with its walking paths and trails, should remain available as it is today, the jewel of Thunder Bay’s park system, as a park for all citizen’s of Thunder Bay to use and enjoy. FOMP support trees, parks and trails; keep Marina Park green with mature trees and trails like Boulevard Lake Park. Friends of Marina Park raise funds in support of the 9th Annual RBC Royal Bank Mayor's Walk for Volunteerism held on Saturday May 3rd. The start location was the Current River Community Centre. Part of the course for the walk was via a connecting trail from the Community Centre to the walking paths of beautiful Boulevard Lake Park. All sports teams, schools and non-profits were eligible to participate this year to raise money for volunteerism as well as for their non profit group. FOMP pulled on their brilliant green shirts and walked with over 100 others in blistering cold, wet weather to participate in this fund raiser.
