Meg Stevenson, raised the remaining $30,000 for phase one. The Committee
is continuing to fundraise for phase two.
Description
The 12,000 square foot Skatepark is made
of reinforced concrete consisting of a bowl design for what is known as vert
skating with “streetscape” elements to accommodate the dual preferences
of skaters. The Skatepark is designed for use by skateboarders, rollerbladers
and bmx bikers and is open during the park’s operating hours (dawn
to dusk). Use of the Skatepark is free.
