All together: Building Momentum
Facebook

Following its May 2024 grand opening, the park had an incredibly successful first season of operations. Through partner organization and public programs and events, individuals of all abilities were provided new opportunities to connect with and explore the outdoors. Athene North Shore hosted a wide range of inclusive, accessible recreation activities like fishing, pontoon floats, kayak paddling, biking, and more. As we look to the future, we strive to continue such programming and provide access to safe, inclusive spaces and opportunities. With your help, this is where individuals of all abilities will build community, enhance physical and mental health, and connect with nature.

Thank you for being a part of our successful first year of operations.
