About Clay Park

The site of Clay Park was bequeathed to Windsor in 1915 by the Davis family, who had previously farmed on this area. In 1917, the property was placed under the jurisdiction of the Parks Board and formally named Clay Park after former Windsor Mayor Henry Clay, whose term in office lasted one year in 1913. Although baseball, softball and football games were popular activities at the park in its early years, such sports were banned in 1959 because of the park's small size and because of the frequent and excessive property damage suffered by area residents. Improvements by the Parks Department in 2007 included the installation of new playground equipment, new pathways and fencing. Clay Park is a greatly improved facility and a well-loved neighbourhood park.

AKO Park

Venue
Originally established as Rossini Park in 1951, the Alpha Kai Omega (AKO) Fraternity began exploring how to become involved in the future development of the park when the City was constructing an athletic building on the site. In 1961, the neighbourhood centre was constructed as the first facility in Windsor designed specifically as a community centre. In 2007, the centre was renamed the Constable John Atkinson Memorial Community Centre, in honour of Constable John Atkinson, Windsor Police Services, who was killed in the line of duty. AKO Park has an outdoor spray pad featuring 22 different water toys, which are computer programmed for a sequence of water fun. The spray pad is open to the public at no charge from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The Community Centre is available for birthday parties. For inquires, please call 519-945-2452.
