Bourkevale Community Centre is located at the south end of Ferry Road, Winnipeg, Manitoba. We
are a small but vibrant community centre offering various activities and
events for our community.
We are privileged to offer not only a great facility, but great team of
dedicated people, and a beautiful green space along the Assiniboine
River.
The Bourkevale Community Centre is adjacent to the St. James Lawn
Bowling Club's greens, a popular city dog park, and is situated
along an official city bike trail which leads west along the
Assiniboine through Bruce Park to the Assiniboine Park foot-bridge. In the winter months,
access to The World's Longest Public Skating Path will be built
along the Assiniboine River from our location! Bourkevale is honoured to be a part of this exciting addition to Winnipeg's attractions.
This web site will provide a way for our community to learn more
about what happens at Bourkevale, and stay on top of new
developments and events. We look forward to adding content
throughout the year.
