El Paso County officially launched a renovation project at Agua Dulce Skatepark.
These improvements are part of the county’s 2021 Parks Master Plan, reflecting a commitment to enhancing recreational facilities and addressing community needs. The renovations, expected to be completed by April 2025, will replace the aging wood and metal skatepark with more durable materials. The upgraded park will feature a new grind ledge, flat rail, quarter pipe, A-frame, pyramid combo, and a hipped bank. Additionally, a neighboring basketball court will also see renovations.
The skatepark project is partially funded by a Texas Parks and Wildlife Grant awarded to the county in 2021.
“I’m really proud of all the efforts that the county has made to improve our parks, especially here in Agua Dulce,” said County Commissioner Iliana Holguin. “These new amenities—a skatepark and improvements to the basketball court—will make this park an even better place for families to come and spend time together.”
Interim Parks and Recreation Director Tim Fulton echoed this sentiment, noting, “Being near a colonia, this area has historically been underserved in terms of parks and facilities. We’re excited to bring this skatepark to the community soon.
Our BANES team is prepared to tackle this project and continue building our communities.
