B.A.R.C. Skatepark

10500 South West 228th

B.A.R.C. is one of the Park District's most unique properties, and it's improving all the time with the help of a team of volunteer stewards. We at VPD hope to turn B.A.R.C. into "THE" alternative park for all. The Master Plan tells most of the story, though it is evolving with input from the community.

The Center offers the following amenities: an indoor skate park, BMX Trails, a Disc Golf Course, and a community garden dubbed "Eden Reframed".

VPD has been working to develop preliminary planting, trail and skate park plans for B.A.R.C. Park stewards have provided input for the three major anchor points of the park -- the skate park, BMX track and frisbee (disc) golf course. Park Commissioners have approved the design and final plans are currently being used to seek funding that will implement the Master Plan.

You too can help create Vashon's most unique alternative park. Join the B.A.R.C. stewards.
