Frisco Early Spring = Bike Park, Disc Golf & Skate Park
Frisco says “Why go to Moab?” The warm spring conditions have allowed the hard working staff at the Town of Frisco to concentrate on the Peninsula Recreation Area and offer Summit County a plethora of mud season recreation. The dirt has surfaced making spring the perfect time to visit Frisco. For the first time in years, you can make a basket, ride the rails and get some vertical on two wheels right here in Frisco. The Disc Golf, Skate Park, and Bike Park will open free to the Public this Friday, April 13, 2012.
The Frisco Bike Park had it’s soft opening in July 2011 and a grand opening in September 2011 providing bikers with just a short window of opportunity to ride it before the snow fell. This year we say “Why Go To Moab” when you can do it all here? The bike park will open the dirt jump facility, the jump trails, and the pump track from dawn to dusk seven days a week. “We ask for the communities support and understanding for the need of temporary closures due to possible changes in weather conditions, but for now we encourage everyone to come out and ride.” stated Josh Olson, Bike Park Manager. Helmets and personal protective equipment are highly recommended when riding the bike park. In addition to the park the mountain bike trails on the peninsula are clear of snow
In addition, the baskets are being set this week and the course is clear of hazards to open the full 18 holes of the Peak One Disc Golf Course. The golf course is open to the public 6 am to 10 pm. The skate park has been open for a couple of weeks and will remain open through the summer. “The Peninsula amenities provide a great way for the family to get out and enjoy the weather and we are pleased to be able to offer them two-months earlier than expected” stated Suzanne Lifgren, Marketing Director for the Town.
The Day Lodge located at the Frisco Adventure Park will be open to the public providing some food & beverage service, information and restrooms.
The Frisco Recreation Department will be launching summer programs to learn and build skills for all the Frisco amenities. Visit the FriscoRecreation.com website for more information.
