Local Parks grants help protect these symbols of vibrant communities, providing places for families to gather and play and promoting a healthy and active lifestyle in an era when people spend increasing amounts of their time inside. The WWRP is the largest source of local parks funding in Washington, helping communities fund the acquisition, development, and renovation of vital recreation areas and green spaces.

This project installed a new 10,000 square foot skate park and required stormwater improvements at 5532 Second Avenue in Ferndale, WA. Named Metalworks Park, it features a bowl, streetscape and park features.
