Vancouver meeting report

Team Shralp passed along a report on the Vancouver meeting last week. Sorry I’m a little slow in passing along the info. Sounds like there was a decent turnout – a mix of ages and a few skateboarders for a change. Some neighbors thought the skatepark was getting special treatment – dog park people were pissed cause they pay for their trash removal, restrooms, and fencing but the skatepark is going to have those things provided by the city, months ahead of any other feature in the park. What can we say skateboarders have a better lobby.

There was some loose discussion of rules, kind of like Battle Ground’s rules: bikes and skateboards all the time, pegs yes, and be polite to each other and people and things around the park.

The current plan is to open mid-August and they are going to sneak it – no big event just open the gates and let it happen, just word of mouth.

Thanks Jason. skatepark rendering from Grindline

    Mid-August!!! PHUCK YOU!!! PHUCK your rules. Go pound sand. I don’t direct any hostility towards Jason or Con Man. I direct it to the phucks keeping me from coming up there and having a F-ing good time. I call B.S., the park is ready to skate.
