Off the air…
Well, off the web site, until April 1. Quick trip to Colorado ski country. I have sent messages to RVCC board members regarding the skatepark but so far now word back. If you know someone involved at RVCC, get them involved with Skate Nelson, too. I went to Gypsy Hill Park in Staunton last weekend. For those that don’t know, they have a small skatepark. It’s got some pretty good features: It’s on smooth concrete, there is no attendant, no fence, and it’s free. Pretty simple layout… a rail or two, pryamid ramp, small half-pipe. It’s a great example, too, that a community skatepark works. Within sight of the skatepark are three full-size deluxe basketball courts. Not a sole was playing b-ball. But the skatepark had at least eight people having fun, gettin’ exercise. – Tim
Well that just goes to show that skateboarding is one of the leading active sports …..that needs to be recognized.
Nice!
