Penrith’s newest sport and recreation destination is less than one week away from its grand opening.
Penrith City Council General Manager, Andrew Moore said he was looking forward to seeing the community enjoying the precinct for the first time on Saturday.
“Grab your family or friends and come along to check out all of the exciting new facilities available in the Gipps Street Recreation Precinct,” Mr Moore said.
“There’s something for everyone with children’s play areas, sports fields, a skate park, pump track, sports courts, outdoor fitness equipment, picnic and BBQ areas, public artwork, and plenty of parking and toilets.”
