6th Avenue and Build Day
I hope you've had a good summer. Now that school has started back up, we're going to get busy with the skatepark. Here's what's going on:
1. Call your city councilman and/or Mayor Graham: We've been included in the feasibility study for the soccer complex. Yeah. However, we need to continue to show support for putting the skatepark in with the soccer complex project before the city council. This is our best (and quickest) route to a permanant skatepark in Crossville. Please call them and let them know how important it is to you. It only takes 5 minutes of your time (or your parent's) and will make a big difference. The number for City Hall is 484-5113 and ask for your councilman or the mayor. Please make it short, and don't give opinions on concrete vs. modular builds, just that you support a skatepark.
2. Road Trip to 6th Ave Skatepark: The Skatepark Association will be going to 6th Ave Skatepark in Nashville on Saturday, August 19th. We will meet at the temporary skatepark to caravan to 6th Avenue at 7:30am and pull out of the parking lot by 7:40 am. The session runs from 9-12 noon. Bring your board, blades or bike. Helmets are required. You must bring a parent with you to sign the 6th Avenue waiver at 6th Ave or download the form here and have it signed by a notary public. You must provide your own ride and transportation. We'll pay for the entrance fee for the session at 6th. Please don't show up and try to get a ride as we don't have any extra seats. Coordinate with your friends and parents for transportation.
3. Skatepark Build Day: Really! We're going to build some quarterpipes for the temporary park on Saturday, September 2 starting at 8 am. We need your help. We'll need sawhorses, extension cords and power tools as well as the use of a truck to transport the wood. Please let me know what you might be able to provide. Come out and join us during the day if you can. We'll order some pizza for lunch for those who come and actually work. We will be building the quarterpipes from a plan.
That should keep us busy for the next few weeks.
