Shade's Mills Park and Nature Centre in Cambridge are in the midst of a transformation.
Through the generous support from Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, the park has a brand new feature for visitors to explore this year.
The Toyota Amphitheatre provides a new venue for public and nature centre programs that is unlike any other in the area.
The new amphitheatre is the new home of Friday night Movies in the Park, giving people the chance to come out, enjoy nature and take in a movie under the stars.
Check out the weekly movie schedule and plan your summer now!
Other improvements are in the works, too. The Shade's Mills Natural Playground is being built right beside the Toyota Amphitheatre. The natural playground will provide both active, and creative play opportunities for park visitors, and learning opportunities for students visiting the nature centre.
Natural playgrounds use materials that fit into the landscape, such as boulders and logs. Children enjoy creative play in nature, and over time find new ways to enjoy the playground as they grow.
The new playground has received the financial support of the Lyle S. Hallman Foundation, the Bridgeway Foundation and Tigercat Industries.
